DESCRIPTION
Update v0.9.923 added a new property to fuselages, clampDistances. This addition is almost revolutionary in building, the downside is that it makes it very easy to create bad/bugged shapes (shapes that are visually bugged), so it was made a property that could only be edited via XML. Clamping does not only affect the visuals of the part, but it also manipulates the collider, similar to how corner radius works.
This is such a beneficial addition to the game, that a mod like this is necessary to make the feature viable. Because the mod works with pre-existing XML properties, crafts made with Lider WILL work on mobile. Just adding sliders for clampDistances is not all this mod does. Currently, it also creates individual sliders for the top and bottom pinch of a part, allowing for even more customization to parts. In the future, I intend to add more features to the mod that will further ease the building experience.
Here are some examples of complex shapes you can make with a single part:

considering that this is simply an XML-only thing made more easy to use, is this clamping feature somehow acessible via the normal overload and/or text editor?

@Dryhorse after looking into how the game calculates CoM changes, and the idea of how it would similarly be changing the densities of fuel, I do not think I will be implementing that anytime soon, if at all.

@Dryhorse Yeah, that was something I was aware of. I may look into trying to adjust the volume of the tanks, but I feel that could create a lot of issues. It may not tho.

I'm not sure if this is known or if there is a solution to this, but adjusting the clamp distances does not affect the mass or volume of a tank at the moment.

@SumoSasquatch85 simple answer, mods don’t work on mobile… yet you can download crafts made via this mod on mobile.
