2.5 m to 3.75 m short connector

[SievertChaser]

Remember the thin connectors for the other sizes? I'm planning a 3.75 m interplanetary vessel (based on the Taurus series of 3.75 crew pods and labs), and it will have to use quite a few 2.5 sections in the stack.

How do I go about scaling up the stock part? IIRC there's a parameter for it, right?

What's doubly ridiculous is that I can't even find the stock part.

You could try tweakscale mod or procedural parts mod mabye..

Don't want to dig into Tweakscale to find that one part config.

That must have been before I started playing, I don't remember a 2.5 to 3.75 short. I could have really used one reciently.

Oh wait... you're talking about modding one?

If you are talking about the short metallic adapters then they are:

• "Squad/Parts/Structural/adapterSmallMiniShort/adapterSmallMiniShort.cfg"
  
• "Squad/Parts/Utility/largeAdapterShort/largeAdapterShort.cfg"

However they are 1:2 / 2:1 so you won't get 3.75 to 2.5 with any of them, but only 3.75 to 1.875.

You can however try scaling just vertical component of the part's scale of "Squad/Parts/Structural/Size3To2Adapter/part.cfg" which is the 3.75 to 2.75 (long) adapter by adding MODEL entry to your configuration file, e.g.:

	MODEL {
		model = Squad/Parts/Structural/Size3To2Adapter/Size3Adapter
		position = 0.0, 0.0, 0.0
		scale = 1.0, 0.25, 1.0
		rotation= 0, 0, 0
	}

Alright, the location misled me.

Anyway, does anyone know how to edit the attachment nodes?

Oh wow!!! And how did you end up doing it???

By scaling the Y component of the MODEL's scale and multiplying by the same scale factor the Y coordinates of the top and bottom nodes. From the looks of it, that could be even the 0.25 scale from my example above.

Exactly. I checked with the other connectors, only had to alter the two node values (from 1.1 and -1.1) andyes, added your MODEL code. Thanks.
