Editor icon size

[lo-fi]

Hello

Does anyone know why some parts come out with a tiny icon in the editor? My tracks come out like that the same as the large RBI tracks and I'm at loss to explain why, though I have a suspicion it's to do with having a skinned mesh in the part... There seemed to be some normal issues with the skinned mesh going into Unity, so I have a nasty feeling something is seeing it as a huge open part.

Does the icon get made by part tools and compiled into the .mu? Or procedurally in the game? Is it possible to create a custom icon without PartCatalog?

Thank you for any insights you might be able to give.

You'll have to show us what you mean. Are you talking about the part preview that shows up?

Yep, that's it. Away from pc, was musing about what's causing it. I'll post a screenshot later.

By the way, the track part which have this issue is the only one I ever seen (but I didn't use too much mods and tried too much too) doing that ! Usually they grow like hell due to the 3 resources issue.

@lo-fi: never take a look into it, is there any weird scales in source and/or unity object(s) + in part config file ?

The bounds of the parts are not calculated correctly for skinned meshes. I've consistently had this problem when using them, and haven't found a solution yet (see two of the large solar panels in NFT).

Aha! I had a feeling it was something to do with that. Research required... Thanks, sometimes it's enough to have it confirmed
