"Lock Suspension" for Rover Wheels

[tg626]

While it didn't break the mission, I had an encounter with rover wheel suspension. I had carefully built my station parts to dock when driven into position. I did my testing on Kerbin.

Where the ports lined up nicely. But once on Minmus....

The end units, which are (apparently) lighter then the middle part have their wheels off the ground. (magnetic docking ports drew them together, tho I could have used the IR jacks to align things if need be)

It seems that "lock suspension" on the landing legs pushes the legs out to full extension and locks them there. It would be nice if that could be done with the wheels as well, rendering the changes in compression due to differing gravity on different bodies moot.

I agree! but id also like it if there was an "adjust ride height" tweakable option.

this would be very very useful for aircraft but also rovers and trucks.

Rover wheels need to be redone. Luckily, there's a mod for that. Having stock ride height adjustment would be great as well.
