Command Module transfer/assign part.

Is there any possibility of having a part make the part it's attached to have Command Capsule abilities? I would see using this to make crewable parts able to control the vessel, but only if there are crew manning the part.

Just add ModuleCommand to the part using module manager... I'm not a module manager expert but this is what you would need to add to the part. The minimumCrew value is the minimum number of crew it needs to be able to control the vessel...

MODULE

{

name = ModuleCommand

minimumCrew = 1

}

Not exactly what I wanted. Using MM would change all of those parts. For an example, suppose you had 2 hitchhiker crew capsules end to end on a vessel and you wanted one of them to be the control pod. My idea is to have a radially attached part that you attach to one of the Hitchhikers and gives it ModuleCommand. Would this require custom plugin? Could you even do this with a plugin?

Yes, it would require a plugin. Yes it can be done. I do something that's sort of along these lines in ScienceAlert: adding and removing a PartModule at runtime from particular parts
