I have added a exhaust stream to the tower. No problem. But because this exhaust stream needs to match the animation that is a problem.
I added an attachment to see if the values of the location changed and they do. But the exhaust remain at the starting point.
This just turns the exhaust on if a vessel is near and thruster off
sets the vaporlocation to match animation

I got it to work. But it leaves multiple exhaust streams. So I may just have a key to turn on/off the exhaust.

but it make the exhuast stream I turn it off and move the arm but the first one is present.
