Generic IVAs for mods without IVAs

[genericeventhandler]

Hi all, 

I've got a lot of mods installed with hundreds of command pods without any IVA what soever. 

So I was thinking, maybe I could write a MM patch that looks for all command pods that have crew capacity of  x and assign a default pod to it. 

So my idea is that the patch looks for mods that you might already have installed, picking the best one available and falling back to standard squad parts when it can't find a good match.

Can anyone help complete the table below? Or is there a mod pack out there with generic IVA's for pods?

Thanks

GEH.

 

Editied  - Added 5 man pod

Crew Capacity Alternative IVA's

Crew Capacity	IVA Name
1	mk1PodCockpit   -  SQUAD
2	landerCabinInternals - SQUAD
3	PodCockpit  - SQUAD
4	PodCockpit - SQUAD
5	RodanCockpit - TundraExploration
6	inlineCmdPodinternals - NearFutureSpacecraft
7	mk4-1pod-internals - NearFutureSpacecraft
8	?

@PART[*]:HAS[#CrewCapacity[=2]]:HAS[!INTERNAL]

	}
}

@PART[*]:HAS[#CrewCapacity[=3]]:HAS[!INTERNAL]
{
	INTERNAL
	{
		name = PodCockpit
	}
}

@PART[*]:HAS[#CrewCapacity[=4]]:HAS[!INTERNAL]
{
	INTERNAL
	{
		name = MK3_Cockpit_Int
	}
}

@PART[*]:HAS[#CrewCapacity[=5]]:HAS[!INTERNAL]:NEEDS:[TundraExploration]:FINAL
{
	INTERNAL
	{
		name = RodanCockpit
	}
}



@PART[*]:HAS[#CrewCapacity[=6]]:HAS[!INTERNAL]:NEEDS[NearFutureSpacecraft]
{
	INTERNAL
	{
	  name = inlineCmdPodinternals
	}
}

@PART[*]:HAS[#CrewCapacity[=7]]:HAS[!INTERNAL]:NEEDS[NearFutureSpacecraft]

	INTERNAL
	{
	  name = mk4-1pod-internals
	}
}

Are you hoping for IVAs that look especially generic or nondescript here? Or are you just looking for any sort of IVA to repurpose, even if it clearly doesn't look the same from the inside as it looks on the outside?

Any IVA,  pod like is better, but anything will do. I hate for them to be sat in the deepest blackness, or in some cases, floating in space with a docking clamp in front of them.

Just create a mm patch re-use an existing Iva

Yep that's what I'm trying to do, this is what I have so far. 

Spoiler

@PART[*]:HAS[#CrewCapacity[=1]]:HAS[!INTERNAL]
{
	INTERNAL

	  name = mk1PodCockpit
	}
}
@PART[*]:HAS[#CrewCapacity[=2]]:HAS[!INTERNAL]
{
	INTERNAL
	{
		name = landerCabinInternals
	}
}

@PART[*]:HAS[#CrewCapacity[=3]]:HAS[!INTERNAL]
{
	INTERNAL
	{
		name = PodCockpit
	}
}

@PART[*]:HAS[#CrewCapacity[=4]]:HAS[!INTERNAL]
{
	INTERNAL
	{
		name = MK3_Cockpit_Int
	}
}

 

What I'm trying to find is other mods out there that have IVA's for bigger crews.

Nice patch! I believe Fusetek had some nice IVA. If you need something specific, I might be able to create something simple.

Fusetek, cool thanks.  Don't bother doing anything for me,  but if you want to take the idea and make an IVA mod, feel free.

Near Future Spacecraft delivers IVAs for a 2-man, a 6-man and a 7-man command pod.

Just make sure to credit those authors, and before using, ask them for their permission.

No permissions are required here. He is offering a config file for download that redistributes nothing from the mods they are referencing. If he were to offer the actual IVA spaces for download - then yes, he would need to comply with the original licenses.
