Question I have my mesh, now what?

[Kaito]

Okay, So i have a rough mesh of what I want (actually, I only have the body shape and the main engine), what do i do next? Heres a basic checklist of what I need to do yet:

Add a docking port
Add Retro-thrusters
Add RCS
Add UMMU Support
Compile and make necessary files


So, I can do the Retro-thrusters and RCS, but how do i find out what size the Docking port should be? And, after I get all the modeling and stuff done, what should I do from there?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,
~Kaito

Normally in Orbiter it is 1 meter for most of meshes.
Mesh Wizard has Distance between 2 points feature, if Iremember correctly.
