Ws60

Economy of scale and tech maturity play heavily into that as its really no different than what modern commercial aircraft go through. The difference being that with modern aircraft we have a lot more practical experience regarding what does and does not work for a practical aircraft; along with a much larger economy of scale when it comes to spreading out research, maintenance and production costs. Now the shuttle was a white elephant, plain and simple, and never really delivered on what it was promised but many people forget it was also pretty much the first operational prototype for an entirely new type of vehicle and who's own origins date back to the late 60's. The fact that it delivered anything useful is nothing short of remarkable and on par with the original Write flyer being useful for more then a short hop. Government and private sector agencies are both tools in the same box, each have situations they are better suited for and one does not invalidate the other by mere existence. No more then a hammer invalidates a screwdriver. So an agency whose mandate is to perform pure science and initial research is not a case where the demand for profit at the end of each quarter at all costs is a good thing.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one with this issue. For whatever reason if I try to use the S2-W Intake version not only does it fail to work it appears to prevent any other intakes not directly attached to the engine(s) in question from working as well. Yet if I replace it with the S2-W solid variant, all else remaining the same, any other intakes that were previously non-functional where placed begin to work. Its sad really as I love the S2-W Intakes style and its theoretical output should be enough to keep even the largest of engines well fed without resorting to a forest of air intakes.

After giving it a second try yes, I'm able to edit fuel type/quantity now. Somehow I had missed that the GUI was only accessible in the action group menu. >.> On a side note how compatable is this with Interstellar KSP?

Hello. I've recently tried to give your mod a go however I've had little success so far. Originally I attempted to run it along with other mods such as Interstellar KSP, FAR, and Deadly Reentry, but the fuel selection GUI never appears in the VAB even when selecting whats listed as a compatible tank. I even went so far as dumping my entire KSP folder and doing a clean reinstall of 0.23.5 before installing RealFuel along with the StockEngine.cfg to eliminate possible conflicts with no success. Sadly I have had no better luck trying to search for a potential solution on these forums so I'm not sure what to try next.
