MysteryGoo and Science Jr. Improvements

[Wizard Kerbal]

I don't like that I have to manually bring my scientist out to reset experiments, so here's an improvement that could be made.

The player clicks, "Reset" on either of them, and a check is made to see if a scientist is on the vessel. If yes, the experiment is restored. If no, a message pops up saying, "No scientist onboard" and the experiment doesn't do anything.

There is an option like that in mobile processing labs. It’s the button that says “clean experiments” tho idk if it works with no scientists onboard.

A lot of vessels don't have labs.

Hmmm yea.... hmm... I usually cluster experiments right where the scientist is seated so I don’t need to move him around. Soo... idk

Same here. I generally try to put all experiments in range of the command pod's ladder. Failing that, put everything into a 2.5m service bay and slap a ladder in the middle the scientist can hold on to while I'm clicking around.

One improvement that could definitely be made with these is that if you have a scientist or a lab onboard, transmitting data instead of keeping it doesn't pop up a yes/no confirmation dialog complaining that you'll need to reset the experiment every single time.
