another list of probably not already suggested parts

[Nemrav]

Okay just thought of some part ideas that might be practicle... but chances of them having been suggested (for clairity extensively) (or reasonably searchable) are low...

just add a number and post but if the part you described can be searched in 1-3 words of the search box plz do so (no old already seen flame battles)..

1: Tetrahedral wings, high drag, high lift, light but enormous wings... (see the AEA's Cygnet I, II, III (preferably) or the Oionus I).

2: strut with attachment nodes only. That gets mesh collider that we can place things radially on it, mainly to solve the problem of the hierarchy type building gaps...

3: air bags, deployable like a parachute that has low heat resistance but can absorb lots of impact/can float (lithobraking ftw)

4: large extended radial decoupler, simply not a fan of having to use panels as part deflectors..

edit : I only saw in the search some mods for airbags

Sry, but I only see a use for airbag like parts. And as posted above, that has been discussed. Don't know if we need more posts on that. I think this could be a feature for the beta of ksp. Since that is right around the corner, it might be the time to gather some opinions on older suggestions.

Water and surface landings with an airbag like system sounds cool to me
