-- The first parameter i, tells us how many parts fit into the array, so it iterates from 0 to sSParts-1, each part has his own value i.
-- The second, third and fourth parameters are the relative coordinates of the part, you have to start at (0,0,0) and be sure you fill the array into the right direction. A short example: your part is 2 griddimensions long and you place it in the game, that the relative coordinate point is at (0,0,0) and the part lies in the positive z-axis, then you have to use the coordinate point (0,0,1).
-- The fifth parameter is an array with size 4, at index=0, you have to set 1 if your part covers the gridpoint at (x,y,z), otherwise 0. At index=1,2,3 you define the possible connection directions (1 for x, 2 for y and 3 for z), be sure to use the notation from above (0, "+-", "+", "-").

-- This needs some explanation: My grid can't have negative indexes, but if the space station should rotate around it's own middle, i have to put the space station around the point (0,0,0), which means about half of the station has negative coordinates, to solve this problem, i do the following. I start in the middle of my grid (sSSize/2), subtract (BPLength/2) and let it run up to sSSize/2+BPLength/2, so in the grid my bodyparts will be placed around the middle of my grid, with some randomly chosen variation for each coordinate, so my station isn't a cubus. To transform that into the game i simply subtract 1/2*sSSize, so the space station is around the point (0,0,0).
