RealChute doesn't work properly when attached from inventory

From the forum, posted by @cordilon

Hey, I encountered the same bug as described by @BradleyJH (some pages ago in this thread). Short version: RealChute parachutes disappear when attaching.

Some additional info though:

  • the chute seems to get placed in the world, but without a model and somewhat in the center of the ship as opposed to where it should be
  • grabbing an existing RealChute chute from the ship, storing it in a Kerbals inventory and attaching it somewhere else works perfectly fine

I know it's impossible to make a mod compatible with every other mod out there, but attaching emergency chutes some 5sec before atmospheric reentry is just the coolest thing to do ; )

My guess is that it's a kind of parts that need extra initialization (like EAS-4) so, just plain Part.couple() call is not sufficient. More testing needed.
