Possible for other plugins to add info to KER's part info window in editor? #76

I haven't looked at the code yet, so this is just an initial query. I really love using KER in the editor scene and love the little part info windows you get on middle click.

If possible I would like to add additional information to this window for parts that are handled by TestFlight. Things like current data and reliability.

The ability to easily extend the part info windows to display data from custom PartModules is not currently implemented. However this does sound like a very nice feature which I'll try to include whilst undertaking the overhaul from IMGUI to Unity UI.

That works for me. I'm taking the same stance on a lot of issues :)

Hi @CYBUTEK ,

Would it be ok if I used some of your code for displaying that part info window for my own purposes in TestFlight? Like I said i'd like to add info to your windows, but if the player does not have KER installed (madness I know!) I'd like to provide a native overlay that is similar so that it basically works and looks roughly the same with or without KER.

So just asking permission to use some of your part info overlay code if you don't mind. Or if you do mind just say so :)

Thanks!
