Problems hiding decoupler from staging

[ATG]

Hi,

I have a part that I added a decouple node to. I do not want the decoupler to appear in the staging and only operate upon manual use. I've added "staged = false" to the ModuleDecoupler section but the decoupler keeps showing up in staging. In the past this use to work...can anyone confirm that this no longer works (perhaps a 24.2 bug) or am I doing something wrong?

iirc they changed it so that the name of the part is picked up and not the flag. Try duplicating the part and renaming the copied part and try using that in the vab.

put the troubling decoupler at the top of the stack? stage 0? i know it's not pretty, but it should do what you want
