sad to see this idea died down 1.4 years later we need linear areospikes.

So I edited XML to scale some toroidal aerospikes:
X-ray view in editor

And the plumes look okay:
launch views

But a "real" linear aerospike would be better.

Instead of gimbals, the real RS-2200 for X-33 used differential throttling in four different quadrants.

It is not a very important feature and someday there might be a mod for it.

@Gabepasc Then you cant do anything

@AtlantikWall45 According to the comments the under expansion looks bad. Also, it raises the part count a lot and it is not easily resizable. It doesn't really matter, though, since I doubt this suggestion will be used.

@Gabepasc Then donwload Mario G's Linear Aerospike Stock

@AtlantikWall45 It still wouldn't be quite the right shape right? Any way it wouldn't be realistic because linear aerospace engines have a bunch of combustion chambers around the edges instead of one like the toroidal aerospike. In addition, it takes more time to use XML.

Stretch an Aerospike in XMl either Z or X
