Ah, thanks for the answers everyone! It was certainly making me question if I was doing things right. I've got many hours in on the game, but only recently needed to mess with the MPL. I'd been playing science careers with 800% science gain for the longest time, which was great for learning things. I just started about a week ago playing the real career mode with just 100% science gain. Not nearly as hard to advance now as when I first got the game!

Hello! I've been having a frustrating issue with the MPL that nobody else on the internet seems to have, so I suspect there is something I'm overlooking here. I've tried building a few MPLs now, and I keep getting "Not enough data storage for $EXPERIMENT" on anything I try to use "Process in Lab" on. For instance, as with my currently-running-in-background lab, I'm on the launchpad, I use a materials bay, the Process in lab button says +1 data, there is 0/500 data in the MPL. I hit the button, it does a transfer for a while, then it gets to 100%, says 'Not enough data storage...!' and then the MPL has 1/500 data, and I can still keep the 1.6 science points the materials bay provides as well, separately. I'm not sure if the error itself is an error and everything's fine, or if something terribly wrong is happening. What am I missing? Edit: I've got to leave the house for a bit; I will not be able to respond right away to any answers but I will when I can and any help is appreciated!
