Switching 'Ladder' transforms results in undesired collider behaviour in the VAB/SPH #55

Closed ChrisAdderley closed 6 years ago

ChrisAdderley commented 6 years ago

While using a ladder transform/collider as a switcher target works very well in the flight scene, in the VAB the colliders used to specify the ladder become collidable and affect surface attachment.

Repro steps:

  1. Install SSPX Redux (https://github.com/ChrisAdderley/StationPartsExpansionRedux)
  2. Enter VAB
  3. Create a PXL-1 'Hostel' Habitation Module
  4. Select a surface attachable part and notice it attaching to ladder colliders located along the EVA rails. Notice it not being affected by the ladder collider near the main airlock.

I'm not sure why this is breaking, but it seems to work if you don't directly touch the transform that the collider is on - if you parent it to something else and toggle that instead, everything seems to work fine.

I don't think there's anything simple I can do about this - something in Unity seems to be getting messed up by turning transforms on and off, but there seems to be a reasonable workaround
