Defining a module is a task in and of itself and one that I'm sure has already been covered in other places.  Many modules defined by mods are duplicating effects that could be created with stock modules, but for one reason or another, the mod owner has decided to create their own modules (possibly for degree of control, possibly because the stock module didn't quite do everything they needed).  In any event, I've looked at some of the Mod modules, and detailed them below.  By mod, they are:

This module will make the part acting like a grappling-hook, any collided part in front of the grapple will be automatically attached if the inpact is strong enough. Only work when attached on a winch.

MODULES FROM MODS

Defining a module is a task in and of itself and one that I'm sure has already been covered in other places. Many modules defined by mods are duplicating effects that could be created with stock modules, but for one reason or another, the mod owner has decided to create their own modules (possibly for degree of control, possibly because the stock module didn't quite do everything they needed). In any event, I've looked at some of the Mod modules, and detailed them below. By mod, they are:

Kerbal Assembly System

Kerbal Assembly System is most noted for adding the option to grab and move parts using Kerbals. It also allows for storage of certain parts in containers.

MODULE:NEEDS[KAS] for the module

KASModuleContainer

Specifies that this part can serve as a container for other parts, and how much storage space the part has. Also included is an interaction distance. Kerbals must be this close or closer to open the container. Lots of sounds.

variable example definition
maxSize
  • 5
  • 20
  • 80
 specifies the size of the container relative to Kerbal Attachment System parts.
maxOpenDistance
  • 1
  • 5
 Kerbals must be at least this close (in meters) in order to open the container
sndStorePath
  • KAS/Sounds/hookBayStore
 sound stuff
sndOpenPath
  • KAS/Sounds/containerOpen
 sound stuff for opening the container
sndClosePath
  • KAS/Sounds/containerClose
 sound stuff for closing the container
bipWrongSndPath
  • KAS/Sounds/bipwrong
 sound stuff 
MODULE
{
 name = KASModuleContainer
 maxSize = 80
}

ModuleConnectedLivingSpace

  • true
  • false
 specifies whether Kerbals can commute to parts connected to this part

KASModuleGrapplingHook

This module will make the part acting like a grappling-hook, any collided part in front of the grapple will be automatically attached if the inpact is strong enough. Only work when attached on a winch.

variable example definition
partBreakForce
  • 6
 The force that needs to be applied on the grapple/part joint to break.
staticBreakForce
  • 15
 The force that needs to be applied on the grapple/static joint to break.
aboveDist
  • 0.05
 Distance from the attach point to the center of the part
forceNeeded
  • 4
 Collision force needed to attach the grapple.
attachToPart
  • true
  • false
 Disable/enable attachment on parts.
rayDir
  • (0,-1,0)
 Direction of the attach raycast. Attachment will be done only with objects in that direction.
rayLenght
  • 0.8
 Attach ray lenght.
