What event should I use if I want my method to be called on a part's destruction? I know this question sounds stupid but I really can't find any tutorial on how to write a custom part modifier script.

@NathanMikeska just one more question: the script I attached to one of the game objects under prefab doesn't seem to work. The mesh renderer and colliders do get loaded, so I guess my script is not at the right place. So what should I put the script in?

When not warping, regular Unity physics are used, so if you want to modify velocity, you could add force to the parts associated Rigidbody.

Depends on where your code is running and what you need. If you are working with a PartModifierScript, there may be a few options. It is a MonoBehaviour, so you can always use OnDestroyed or OnDisabled. There is an overrideable method, OnPartDestroyed, that I believe gets called if the part is destroyed/blown-up in game, despite the game object potentially hanging around (deactivated) for a while. There is also an OnDisposed method, can't remember the exact context in which it gets called.

Also, if I want to modify the velocity of the part, should I use something under ModApi or just UnityEngine.Physics ?

If you do a Debug.Log in the awake and/or start methods of your script, can you find them in your log file (or see them in the dev console?)
