Hi, I have recently downloaded the Extra Planets mod, and ever since I have downloaded it, ksp will not work. Whenever I get to the main menu after the load sequence I get a warning sign saying that the mod cannot load, and that loading my savegame is not recommended. Any suggestions? :/

I checked the forum and a first-pass search didn't bring up anything except this: Unnecessary Warning Given to Scientist That topic asks the game to detect whether the Kerbal grabbing the data is a scientist, and skip the warning if true. What I'm requesting is a bit different: I would like the ability to shut off the warning entirely via a 'Don't Show This Again' option, much like the one that appears the first time you use physical time warp. It seems odd to me that a game with such a steep learning curve and so little forgiveness for blowing things up would see fit to let you choose to ignore the risk of rattling your ship apart with time warp but refuse to let you ignore the fact that only a scientist can reset a Goo canister in flight. I've already run the experiment at this point: that's a good thing. I've got the science. Warning me that I might not be able to get another experiment result is like warning me that I might not be able to have a second dessert after supper: it may be nice to know, but it's not necessary. When compared to the fact that I don't even get a warning that only an engineer can fix wheels or that only a pilot can operate SAS in the absence of a probe core, it's a bit out of place. Also annoying. It's very, very annoying, especially when I'm trying to get some extended use out of a single Goo canister (KSC microbiomes, for example)--to the point that I'd rather mod the thing to be rerunnable rather than put up with the clickfest.

When a scientist takes data from the mystery goo, he gets a strong warning "this module can only be restored by a scientist!". Duh, I am a scientist! This warning would be appropriate for a pilot or engineer taking the data, but certainly not when the data is being taken by an actual scientist? The warning should probably be omitted when it's a scientist taking the data, or at the very least phrased differently. Maybe even restore the goo automatically, since there's no good reason a scientist would intentionally take data and not restore the goo afterwards. (Same goes for Science Jr., obviously)
