Unknown Part Skipper 5.1.0
Load craft files and save-game vessels even when some parts are no longer installed. Unknown Part Skipper removes only unavailable parts in memory instead of letting stock KSP reject the entire craft or delete the vessel.
In the VAB/SPH load browser, the mod lists every missing part and lets you cancel or load without those parts. The cleaned craft passes through KSP’s normal editor pipeline, remaining editable, mergeable, and re-saveable. Launch-site and save-game loads are cleaned silently with an on-screen notice.
The mod repairs attachment nodes, surface attachments, symmetry, parent links, part indices, and vessel roots. Version 5.1.0 also handles invalid part prefabs, removes orphaned vessel subtrees, promotes the largest surviving component when the root is missing, and correctly remaps indexed surface attachments with collider suffixes.
**Original .craft files are never modified on disk unless you save the cleaned craft yourself.**
