KAS fork for supporting animations

[ZodiusInfuser]

Hi,

I've got two parts in the Infernal Robotics Model Rework that make use of Kerbal Attachment System (specifically the magnet and grappling hook modules), and I would like them to perform an animation whenever an attachment/detachment occurs. Currently KAS does not support this, however the developer, KospY, has given permission for a fork of the project to be made with this functionality. He will then merge this back into the master branch when it becomes time for the next KAS release.

As I am not a KSP coder, I would like to ask if anyone would be interested in implementing this functionality on my behalf? This would greatly add to the awesomeness of the parts it will be used on (seen here sticking this quad to the VAB):

(and here holding a decoupler):

If interested, I'd be happy to answer any questions about the specifics of the functionality required.

Thanks

Oh, I see what you're doing very cool.

I'll have a look when I get a few minutes

EDIT: I think I've figured out where I can add a couple of lines in. Do you want it to attach to parts or just static objects?

I'm thinking it's worth adding an animation module to KAS so it can be used with other KAS modules too, so I'll spend a bit of time adding that.
