Part Switching Information #9

Closed TheGLine closed 4 years ago

TheGLine commented 4 years ago

Adding a brief reminder about those parts in rockets that need part switches to actually show properly would be helpful. This would be especially helpful in the Atlas V section, since both the interstage truss and the RD-180 analogues are part switched to show the correct model.

Added part switch hints to Atlas V (inon interstage) and Titan (engine fairings). Are there any others?

TheGLine commented 4 years ago

I don't believe so, or at least I haven't found any that weren't clear to me.

I didn't realise for the longest time the Atlas tapered tank had a part switch from 1.5m to 0.9375m :P

It's not especially obvious given there's also an Atlas adapter part that achieves the same purpose, and practical application is limited. I need to update the Atlas pages to bring them up to standard anyway so will add this to the guide.
