Does unity 5.0 even work with the KSP part tools? should i use 4.x?

[MrHappyFace]

Before i spend 500 badrillion hours downloading unity, i need to know if unity 5.0 even works with the part tools. I have heard that it doesn't.

I'm using Unity 5 to develop my mod, so it works. Just remember that the new features and stuff don't work with KSP like the particle stuff.

You won't be able to do emissive animations easily in Unity versions higher than 4.2.2. Unity 4 is also a much smaller download than Unity 5. v4.2.2 is about 880mb; Unity5 is 1.2gb

KSP 1.0 is days away.... so with any luck, an updated PartTools is in the pipelines for modders in the near future, as Squad will most likely have to update it for internal use.
