mk1pod: Unable to reach the hatch after unbuckling in IVA

Hey there,

first of all a happy new year to you and a huge thank you for all the hard work that goes into this mod - it makes building realistic space stations so much more fun! :)

Now, when it comes to the m1pod I found it a bit annoying that you cannot reach the hatch when unbuckling in IVA, which makes it a bit cumbersome since you have to go EVA and find another entry to your station.

So I dusted off the MU importer for blender and checked the collision mesh, it seems that the part that's (generated?) from the console is just not leaving enough space for a kerbal to squeeze under it.

As a quick "workaround" I deleted the faces selected in the above screenshot on my end, which makes the pod usable from both directions (tweaking the vertices might also be an option to find a middle ground here)

Now I'm wondering if there's any chance for this tweak to be added to the mod itself?

As luck would have it, I've already tweaked this collider and it'll be part of the next release. You can test it here: https://github.com/pizzaoverhead/FreeIva/releases/tag/0.2.4-prerelease0 . Please let me know if it doesn't work for you!
