Two Mobile Labs In a Station?

[CloudlessEchoes]

I have two mobile labs on a Minmus station, coupled with Clamp-O-Trons. I had the first loaded up with almost 500 data. I then moved some science to the second, and tried to add data to it. But data won't load into this second lab for some reason. Is there a restriction to using two connected like this?

It says "not enough data storage to research xxxx while in spae near Minmus". It will also say sometimes that it has already been researched in this lab, although nothing has been researched in this new lab yet.

Multiple labs on a single station do not work. Undock the second lab from the first and run it as a separate station.

Thanks! That's what I was looking to know... looks like I have to send up some power for this second lab. Just curious, is that documented anywhere? I wasn't able to find that described in the wiki etc.

It's been noted on the forums a few times... I don't know whether it's intentional or a bug.

It does seem that you can set two stations running, and then dock them afterwards... they both keep running.

Yes, they work along nicely. Only when adding new data does it become problematic. The code doesn't look where the data is coming from, but rather where it could be used... and stops looking at the first lab.
