[quick question] "cannot be first part on vessel" -> how do I change that?

Heya,

I changed a stack-placeable part into also being surface-attachable.

But it being stack-placeable AND actually a command-probe, I would also love to be able to place it as a first part.

I compared the CFG to the one of the Probodobodyne HECS and can't see a huge difference. My part also has "vesselType = Probe" and also a MODULE with name = ModuleCommand.

What am I missing?

That's unrelated.

A part can be placed first only if it has a stack node and surface attach enabled.

In the .cfg file, you have to change the 4th digit to a 1 (which is allow surface attach)

The line you're looking for is:

attachRules = 1, 0, 1, 1, 0

Note that this does funky things to parts not designed to allow surface attachment, as the collider might not be designed for this.
