Regarding .cfg module = paramater

[Syndic]

Is it possible to double up on these? I'm diddling around with making a mod pack for my own personal use, picking and choosing the best bits, but I want the features of two plugins on this 1 part.

Is it possible?

And if it is, what is the correct Syntax?

I don't think you can make it as a "double feature" with .CFGs alone; you'll need to "merge" the source files in a third type (not the code, but I'll explain below).

Let's say you have a ModuleA class, importing from Part, and a ModuleB class, also importing from Part.

Both classes have different methods, called onPartDestroy, onUpdate, etc. You'll probably have the same method redefined in both classes.

So, to combine them, you'll need to make your "ModuleAB" class, importing from ModuleA and ModuleB.

For each method, you'll need to do something like:

void onPartDestroy() {

(ModuleA)this.onPartDestroy();

(ModuleB)this.onPartDestroy();

}

whilst being careful that base.onPartDestroy() is not called twice in each submethod.

So yeah, not easy.

Nope. you can only inherit from one class in c#.

EDIT: If at least one of the two functions your part should have is available as part module, then you're lucky. They've been invented to allow multiple purposes for one part.

Oops. I'm a bit rusty in C#, sorry.

Well then, disregard my post; you'll need to integrate the code from both modules in a new module "manually" (copy-paste the code).

Since you'll need to do that manual merge at each update, it can get a bit tedious.
