Hi to all (my first post here),
I also have the permanent tourist issue. I have version 1.7.0 (after the supposed fix), and savegame from start in 1.0.5
I've tried editing "trait" first, also tried to edit "Type" (set it back to crew) and setting "IsGrouchy" to false. Every time I start the save after such edits, when I go to my ship - I get the "refuses to work" message for both my Kerbals in that station. Have stock for 500 days + and electricity for 15 days in the station.
Also in the savegame it seems my ship is well supplied.
My persistent file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-b_sxKZve6odnpLVWtsTlNOVFk/view?usp=sharing
Help would be appreciated - both mod fix, and advice how to adjust savegame file for the short run.
Your mod is one of the things, that keep me playing KSP! Thanks for your work!
