Determining building tiers in a mod?

[Superfluous J]

It may be better to ask "how do I determine data from the persistent file/game state in my mod?",but that's more general than what I need right now.

In my mod All Y'All, there is a minor bug in that you can run a surface sample if you have a Kerbal in a command chair but have not upgraded the R&D Building to the 2nd tier. I'd like to plug this hole by checking - whenever a surface sample would be run - the tier level of the building to make sure the Kerbal should be capable of it.

I've done a few searches but my Fu doesn't seem strong tonight. I can't seem to find ANY information about modding and the building tiers at all.

Anybody have an idea here, or a link to something that could help?

Some code here from Contract Configurator:

            int level = (int)Math.Round(ScenarioUpgradeableFacilities.GetFacilityLevel(facility) *
                ScenarioUpgradeableFacilities.GetFacilityLevelCount(facility)) + 1;
            return level == 0 && contract != null && contract.ContractState == Contracts.Contract.State.Active ||
                level >= minLevel && level <= maxLevel;

Note that level is between 1 and 3 inclusive.  I forget why it checks for level == 0 - it might be in some scenes the ScenarioUpgradeableFacilities isn't loaded and so it always returns zero, so make sure to test it in all scenes you need it in.

GetFacilityLevel

I think I tried every name I could think of, EXCEPT "facility"

ScenarioUpgradeableFacilities.GetFacilityLevel() is exactly what I needed. You are partially responsible for version 0.4 of my mod

You could say that he... *sunglasses* ...facilitated it?
