Wanted re-entry burns on all my parts, so I made a simple config patch "YAKEKOGE"! (Link in comments)
Hi everyone! I’ve been playing KSP for many years, but recently I wanted a more immersive and realistic reentry experience. So, I created my very first config-based patch called "YAKEKOGE - Add Burn Color MOD".
The MOD name “YAKEKOGE” is derived from the Japanese words “焼け” (YAKE, meaning “to burn”) and ‘焦げ’ (KOGE, meaning “to char”).
It automatically distributes a minuscule amount of Ablator resource to every single part in the game, forcing the stock game's burn-color shader to kick in when heated. Now your entire vessel will look properly toasted after a fiery return!
It's completely lightweight, tested in my environment, and works beautifully.
Since I have zero programming knowledge, the config might be a bit basic, but it is released under the MIT License—so I highly welcome any pull requests, optimizations, or spin-offs on GitHub! Let's make it better together.
