APAS-69 docking orientation locking

[Bezzier]

Functionality exists in KSP right now to allow docking only at certain orientations. The APAS-69 should take advantage of this feature to dock only at 120 degree increments, for a more realistic-feeling docking experience.

make a pr for the fix then

[Bezzier]

trying to figure out how to make the snapOffset work to dock only at 60, 180, and 300 degrees. Stock implementation seems to only allow 0 degrees as the offset origin.

Hopefully I will discover how to move the origin. If not, I will need to investigate the colliders for the APAS. This is a lower priority than Issues #3 and #2.

Following added from KSP Forums. No way to use snapRotation on rotated origins to allow e.g. docking at 60, 180, 300 degrees. Good thing we have colliders on the guide fins, which gets pretty close.

I am trying to limit an APAS-style docking port to its three acceptable docking orientations, at 60, 180, and 300 degrees. I can't seem to make it work in that if I use 120, the game would let me dock at 0, 120, and 240 degrees, and if I use 60, the game tries to give me six acceptable docking orientations. Is there a way to tell it to give me three orientations, but offset the first one by 60 degrees?

Sorry, don't think there is; you'd need your own module or something, sorry...
