Mechjeb 2.5.3 doesn't show all menues in Science Mode

[alexwi1]

Hi I hope I'm in the right part of the Forum.

I have bought KSP on Steam and the latest Version of KSP is installed. For Mods I use the CKAN Program. My Problem is, that Mechjeb 2.5.3 doesn't show all menues in the Science Mode (I know that you have to unlock it in carreer mode). The Mechjeb Menue is on my right Screen and when I click on it, buttons like docking are not there. I Installed the Toolbar 1.7.9 to use docking. When I Install the toolbar, it says incompatible with KSP 1.0.4, but sometimes it will work for one flight, but then I have to reinstall the toolbar.

My Problem is, that I want to use the Mecheb menue, but there is never a docking button. Only with the toolbar I can use this button (sometimes).

Can someone help me with this prolem.

I know that in science and career mode, more complex functionality of MechJeb is unlocked through the tech nodes. So in those modes, you will have to research the ability to make use of more complex and powerful MechJeb fuctions.

Also, pretty sure the Toolbar incompatability warning is nothing more than a nuisance...Tons of people still using it successfully in 1.0.4...I even think I read there was a simple workaround for getting rid of the warning...

Ok thank you. Now I feel very stupid ^^

I searchd about 2 hours, but only found this problem in career mode. I think it is a bug that the docking button is sometimes in my toolbar. I have researched the tech and now it stays in my toolbar.

Now my Frustration will end

Yes,some function require to unlock some specific node in the Research and Development tree or at building upgrade.

If you what to have all functions at start of the career,you can use this MM patch:

@PART[*]:HAS[@MODULE[ModuleCommand],!MODULE[MechJebCore]]:Final
{    
MODULE
 {
  name = MechJebCore
 }

}

This will automatically add MJ to all pods and probes(no need for AR202).But there are still couple functions that are hardcodet and get unlocked by building upgrade.One of them being maneuver planner and require to upgrade the tracking station to level 2.

Edit: about the toolbar compatibility,there is "version.txt" in toolbar folder.You can open it,delete everything inside and just write 1.0.4 ,then save it.
