Multiple Modulegimbal

Hi all and happy new year,

I need to make this engine work with multiple transform for gimbal

and here the cfg file

Modulegimbal don't seems to work with none of those nozzle

Thanks for every suggestion

Ok i have find that, if i put transform animations after the gimbal module, those animated parts lock the gimbal module, in my example LFONozzle is the gimbal and engine0nozzle,1,2,3,4 are animated.

The same part without animations work fine.

Thanks for every suggestion

What do you mean by transform animations? KSP doesn't require any kind of animation for module gimbal to work. 

Parent LFO_Nozzle, LFO_Nozzle.001,........ under an empty transform so they copy its rotation. Use that transform in the .cfg as your module gimbal. That should work. You can use more than one module gimbal if you need it.

Your cfg doesn't show any module gimbal or closing brackets so I'm going to assume that isn't your entire cfg.
