The MK1 Universal Fuselages radially attach the wrong way

[Former user]

Hello, I found a minor issue with the MK1 Fuselage (both 2M and 5M versions): When attaching them radially to something, they orient themselves with the shielded part towards the part I'm attaching them to. Like this:

What I thing would make more sense is if they oriented the shielded part towards the bottom, like this:

I tried a quick & dirty fix by editing the attachment node rules in the part.cfg, but the best I could achieve was that in the symmetry mode, one tank was facing with the shielded part down and the other up - clearly not good :). I'm no modder, so I don't know if there are other ways to rotate the part.

If we did that, you'd have the shielding on the bottom on one side, and on the top on the other - symmetry mode is not an actual symmetry mode, it just says it is; that's why the wings don't have heat shielding on the bottom.

Squad would have to make the SPH symmetry mode an actual symmetry mode for that to work.

And, also, the current way has the advantage over the side-attach that you can stick things on the top or bottom of something and it doesn't look asymmetrical :)
