Thanks - worked a treat. Can't actually figure out what I lost, so its a win all round!

removed all mods and bug still occurs.. Open KSP (either normal or X64 version), resume game, click on my Career save "Aug 16", click load, no reaction. Only change is before I click load, the main menu is greyed: After I click load: . spamming the load button is unresponsive. still loads sandbox with no error. Put a fair dent in the tech tree on this save so would like to recover the file somehow... Any suggestions?

Cheers, will give that a crack!

Yeah it's an annoying one. Since I'm running career, didn't want to waste the launch costs so I launched a small probe to ferry up science data from the surface which is then received by my scientist in orbit.. Crude, but it works...

On a career trip to Minmus, I cannot get my lander/ship to separate docking ports. Staging the port activated with no effect. Right click > undock had no effect other than removing the option from the window. and now I'm left with: Alas, even more destructive means of forcing detachment go unsuccessful: (Fully Developed spin - hoping to cause some sort of shear force through the connection. No, that double adaptor does not connect to both science pods :\ ) Tried exiting to KSC and back - nothing. Tried restarting KSP - nothing. Tried x64 KSP - nothing . Even sent an engineer on EVA on the odd hope something might happen - unfortunately, nothing. Any suggestions from here? Only running Mechjeb.
