== STOCK MODULES ==
 
Modules define what specific parts can do.  They are generally calls to C-coded or hard-coded functions that define what functionality these parts have in-game.  If you are a new part designer, modder, engineer, or someone else who makes parts, please check the STOCK modules list '''before''' designing a new module.  Each additional module increases the CPU workload and reduces FPS and Physics.  All 0.90 stock modules are now included.

Control the degree of acceleration of an engine at specified speeds. It uses keys to generate a curve of the amount of thrust generated by the engine according to the speed of the craft. First part of the key is speed in m/s and then comes the thrust multiplier ( the effective thrust will be : maxThrust * multiplier). Used stock by jet engines.

== MODULES POSSIBLY FROM MODS ==
 
defining a module has it's own problems, of course, and I'm no expert, but I did find this along the way:
 
  
=== 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.
+
Constraints define different attributes of a test.
 +
<br /><br />
  
MODULE:NEEDS[KAS]

test -  An optional parameter. Relevant when type ''isn't'' set to 'REPEATABILITY'. Can have values such as:<br />
 +
* GT
 +
* LT
 +
* EQ
 +
* NEQ
 +
<br />
 +
value -  Defines whether or not this test can be repeated. Can have values such as:<br />
 +
* ALWAYS
 +
* BODYANDSITUATION
 +
* ONCEPERPART
 +
<br />
 +
prestige -  Defines the prestige level for the test. Can have values such as:<br />
 +
* Trivial
 +
* Significant
 +
* Exceptional
 +
<br />
 +
body -  Defines what celestial body can be used for the test . Can have values such as:<br />
 +
* _NotHome (disables every flag but Kerbin)
 +
* _NotSun (unclear what this does, but might disable every celestial body but Kerbol?)
 +
<br />
 +
situationMask -  Overrides the situationMask value for this constraint only:<br />
 +

== 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:

STOCK MODULES

Modules define what specific parts can do. They are generally calls to C-coded or hard-coded functions that define what functionality these parts have in-game. If you are a new part designer, modder, engineer, or someone else who makes parts, please check the STOCK modules list before designing a new module. Each additional module increases the CPU workload and reduces FPS and Physics. All 0.90 stock modules are now included.

name names define the module in use and are a general indication of what the module subtype does. Specific variables are associated with each [module].[name]. For example, the Clamp-O-Tron Docking Port Sr. has the MODULE.name ModuleDockingNode and its' associates variables are [referenceAttachNode] and [nodeType]. Some [MODULE]s share variables with other modules, which can make deciphering their purpose difficult.
explanation code examples

CModuleFuelLine

No known arguments or variables at this time. This module is used by fuelLine, presumably to specify that it is fuel Transfer enabled. More research is clearly called for. This module is new in 0.90.

MODULE
{
 name = CModuleFuelLine
}

CModuleLinkedMesh

This module is new in 0.90 and is used by fuelLine and strutConnector, presumably to created the variable length connectors between two parts (and add end caps on both sides).

variable example definition

  • obj_strut
specifies whether there is a flag displayed on the exterior surface of the object.
targetAnchorName
  • obj_targetAnchor
Unknown
anchorCapName
  • obj_AnchorCap
name of the part on the source part that this part attaches from
targetCapName
  • obj_targetCap
name of the part on the target part to which this mesh attaches
MODULE
{
 name = CModuleLinkedMesh
 
 lineObjName = obj_line
    targetAnchorName = obj_targetAnchor
    anchorCapName = obj_anchorCap
    targetCapName = obj_targetCap 
}

CModuleStrut

This module is new in 0.90 and is used by strutConnector, presumably to indicate that it is a structural support part.

variable example definition
linearStrength
  • 100
  • 150
the push/pull strength of the strut
angularStrength
  • 100
  • 150
the sheering strength of the strut
MODULE
{
 name = CModuleStrut
 
 linearStrength = 150
 angularStrength = 150
}

FlagDecal

Parts with this module have a place for a flag on their sides. You don't have to turn it on, but this is how it gets there.

variable example definition
textureQuadName
  • flagTransform
specifies whether there is a flag displayed on the exterior surface of the object.
MODULE
{
      name = FlagDecal
      textureQuadName = flagTransform
}

FXModuleAnimateThrottle

depondOnEngineState
  • True
  • False
specifies whether the animation is dependent on the throttle
responseSpeed
  • 0.5
specifies the rate at which the animation reacts to the change in engine state
MODULE
{
      name = FXModuleAnimateThrottle
      animationName = colorAnimation
      dependOnEngineState = True
      responseSpeed = 0.5
}

FXModuleConstrainPosition

Copies the rotation and/or position (matchRotation/matchPosition) from targetName to moversName. Used by for example wheels to copy the rotation of the steering part to the wheel collider.

variable example definition
matchRotation
  • true
  • false
Should targetNames rotation be applied to moversName?
matchPosition
  • true
  • false

CONSTRAINFX {} unknown
targetName
  • Steering
  • steering
gameObject to copy targetName's world position/rotation of.
moversName
  • wheelCollider
  • steering
gameObject to apply targetName's world position/rotation to.
MODULE
{
	name = FXModuleConstrainPosition
	matchRotation = true
	matchPosition = false
	CONSTRAINFX
	{
		targetName = steering
		moversName = lateral
	}
}

FXModuleLookAtConstraint

Makes two gameObject "look" at each other, for example in suspensions where the piston must "look" at the cylinder. The gameObjects must be aligned so it rotates around it's local X axis and looks down it's local Z axis.

variable example definition
CONSTRAINLOOKFX {}
targetName
  • susp2-1
gameObject to target rotatorsName at.
rotatorsName
  • susp2-2
gameObject to rotate so that it looks at targetName
MODULE
{
 name = FXModuleLookAtConstraint
 CONSTRAINLOOKFX
 {
  targetName = susp2-1
  rotatorsName = susp2-2
 }
 CONSTRAINLOOKFX
 {
  targetName = susp2-2
  rotatorsName = susp2-1
 }
 CONSTRAINLOOKFX
 {
  targetName = susp1-2
  rotatorsName = susp1-1
 }
 CONSTRAINLOOKFX
 {
  targetName = susp1-1
  rotatorsName = susp1-2
 }
}

KerbalSeat

This module makes the part have an EXTERIOR seat.

variable example definition
seatPivotName
  • seatPivot
Unknown
ejectDirection
  • 0, 1, 0.2
specifies the direction from which your Kerbal will exit the vehicle. Try to line up with a hatch!
MODULE
{
 name = KerbalSeat
 seatPivotName = seatPivot  
 ejectDirection = 0, 1, 0.2
}

LaunchClamp

This module enables the part to hold a vessel in suspension on the launch pad.

variable example definition
trf_towerPivot_name
  • obj_girdercap
specifies the model used for the pivot point
trf_towerStretch_name
  • obj_girder
specifies the model for the ground to pivot girder
trf_anchor_name
  • obj_ground
specifies the model for the ground mount point
trf_animationRoot_name
  • launchclamp
specifies the base animation
anim_decouple_name
  • launchclamp
specifies the animation for the release of the clamp
MODULE
{
    name = LaunchClamp
 
 trf_towerPivot_name = obj_girdercap
 trf_towerStretch_name = obj_girder
 trf_anchor_name = obj_ground
 
 trf_animationRoot_name = launchclamp
 anim_decouple_name = launchclamp
}

ModuleAlternator

Specifies that this part produced a resource, based on the percentage of thrust produced by the engine.

variable example
RESOURCE

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:
