From what I understand, the craft consist of a bunch of parts that are arranged in a tree hierarchy. This means that every part (craft component) has exactly one parent (except for the root) and can have 0 or more children.
My question:
Can the game engine support some kind of a special part that attaches to two other (parent) parts?
Details:
This special part has exactly 2 parents and 0 children and it will form a connection between two branches of the craft tree.

    This is not precisely true, to have a part connected to multiple parent parts is definitely possible in SR2, unlike SR1, or KSP. The problem is just aligning them.

    @sumeee I'm not sure struts and fuel pipes are this kind. They're not parts but some kind of modifier afaik. However I remember a mod which allows any part to have multiple parents with special input.

    @AnotherFireFox KSP has two stock parts of this type: struts and fuel duct. I don't remember any mods that added other parts of this type.

    I remember there's a mod of KSP for that.
