Thanks all - I think the problem actually ended up being the Yellow Propulsion lines going from the tanks to the fusealage... i noticed in the one that i have in space that a light cut off the line. I actually thought the fuel line was going to be decorative as everything on the station is cross-feed capable. Anyways, I put a second one into a higher orbit (240K+ so that I could time warp faster), docked, and it is all refueling nicely. I was inspired by this youtube video http://youtu.be/zri-Wep7Fv0 and am pretty happy with the appearance, definintely not efficient (nor was the 48 rockets I used to get it into orbit) Kerbal Logic --- just add more rockets Love the game, been playing it for a few days now, landed on the Mun, sent up a rover, and now docked with a refueling station... I'm really excited about the possibilities!! JJ

OOPs - I didn't think I had hit submit on this post - I reposted below.

I posted a few pictures of the Refueling Station I am trying to use in space. I actually launched it and have it in high orbit. I did dock a vessel to the top of the station, but I cannot get the refueling to work. I can Alt-Right click two canisters next to each other on the outer ring to move fuel in and out, but I can't get fuel down to the little fuel bubbles that are on the bottom near the docking ports. I also couldn't get fuel to the poodle engine on the bottom to do some orbital fine tuning. I double checked that every component on the station allows for a fuel crossfeed (the girder struts, the fuselage in the center, and the observation pods. I'm not sure why I can't get fuel down there to the engine nor to the docking port at the top of the station. I'm sure I can dock to the sides and refuel, but haven't gotten that far yet. Any thoughts?? Thanks much!
