The S.A.S. Module is a toggleable module that acts as a sort of Autopilot to stabilize and help keep a rocket on course.
Usage
S.A.S. modules do not have to be place anywhere in particular to function, however they will cease to function if jettisoned. They appear to function on a stability:mass ratio and the effect can be enhanced by adding additional S.A.S. modules. Often a single S.A.S. module isn't enough.
Config File
This is the default config file for the S.A.S. Module
// this is a sample config file, for determining a good file format for defining part parameters // comment line - ignored by cfg parser // empty lines, or lines without a '=' sign are also ignored // all other lines are split at the '=' sign, and the left operand is used to know what parameter we are setting // diferent parameters require data in different formats (see docs), and each module has it's own parameters (again, see docs) // each assignment must be in a single line. Lines without assignments will be ignored. (You CAN turn on word wrap, though) // each keyword here relates to an existing variable in the assigned module. If the keyword isn't found, it is ignored. // conversely, if a keyword is left unassigned (as in not in the file), it will be initialized with it's default value // This is done automatically, so any public variable defined in the loaded module can be accessed this way (provided it's value can be parsed) // --- general parameters --- name = sasModule module = SASModule author = Il Carnefice // --- asset parameters --- mesh = sasModule.DAE scale = 0.1 texture = sas_main.png specPower = 0.1 rimFalloff = 3 alphaCutoff = 0.5 // --- node definitions --- // definition format is Position X, Position Y, Position Z, Up X, Up Y, Up Z node_stack_bottom = 0.0, -2.84541, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0 node_stack_top = 0.0, 2.47453, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0 // --- FX definitions --- // --- editor parameters --- cost = 2300 category = 1 subcategory = 0 title = S.A.S Module //manufacturer = O.M.B.
