BetterRoveMates

Have you ever thought "ROVEMATE Y U USELESS!?". You have? Good,you came to the right place! I had a thought popup into my head "Rovemates are so useless by themselves. Why not make better ones?". I did just that.

You can now have Liquid fuel and Oxidizer in your rovemates! Want to jump the VAB? Sure!

In v1.3+ all Better RoveMate bodies have probe control. No need for those pesky probe bodies!
v1.5 Brings Probe control and more electricity to the stock RoveMate!

v1.7.5 brings side nodes for all the rovemates for better attachment!

I did my best to try to balance the mass and the amount of resources in them. If you want me to change something,tell me!
