SquidDNA: no worries about that, mixing mods like EL and MKS can get a little confusing as to which mod is doing what.

As to your problem: while not saying this is the case for you, EL shuts itself down on 64-bit windows KSP due to its brokenness (hopefully this will come to an end with KSP 1.1). Works fine on 64-bit linux KSP (it's what I use). If that's not the problem, then make sure you have a suitable part attached. I don't know my way around MKS, but if you check the config files for ExLaunchpad or ExSurveyStation, you can find the parts.

64-bit OS but 32-bit KSP. 

So the "launchpad" part has

// Add Build Capability

	MODULE

	{

	    name = ExLaunchPad

	}

and the "MKS_EL_OrbDock" part (which I've been banging against my head) has

// Add Build Capability

	    MODULE

	    {

	        name = ExLaunchPad

	        SpawnHeightOffset = 3

	    }

As a test I loaded "launchpad" into "Kerbal Space Program\Parts\" to bypass MKS's EL parts filter and opened the sandbox. I got the survey station, which I filled with kerbals and put on the runway. I sent Jeb out to hammer a stake in the ground and went back inside. There was no construction button when I right clicked on the survey station. All I can think to try next is to reinstall all the mods I have loaded. I appreciate your help.

Sorry taniwha, I thought MKS used its own production scheme for shipbuilding. It's been awhile since I've used EL and I've not used it with MKS recently.

Thanks, I was a little worried not being able to find that part meant there was a problem with the install. Is there any more information I can provide to help explain this problem?

Gamerscircle-- it sounds like it might be a MKS productivity issue.

As for myself-- I don't appear to have EL installed correctly and I can't figure out why. I'm running USI Kolonization and I don't get EL UI from the Orbital Shipyard part. 

• I have ModuleManager.2.6.18.dll in GameData. Also the ExtraplanetaryLaunchpads folder (the one containing "Agencies" "Internals" "Parts" "Resources" "Ships" EL_MM.cfg etc.) is inside of GameData.
• EL parts (mallet, stakes) are viewable in the VAB / SPH.
• Toolbar is 1.7.10 and works fine for USI Kolonization, Crew Manifest, Chatterer, etc.

I appreciate any insight you can offer.

Also, it's been awhile since I used EL, but is it still true that there's a little part you have to put on your ship to flag it for an offworld build, or am I thinking of another similar mod?

But I feel like I\'ve seen this before somewhere. ;D (Not necessarily a self-reference here!) It just feels familiar.. which is probably good.

Nice work.

Just to be totally clear: http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/three-wolf-moon

At the risk of coming off as a shill, I totally want to see this as an additional loading screen.

I was going to say 'it's not terribly long' but then I considered that in that way it's comparable to the average Kerbal space mission.

Riess is working on making a cleaner, higher-res version of it in the next few days.

I'll get Riess's attention.
