Mods that play well with Interstellar extended?

[Sresk]

So I love mods... the moar the better  But I am beginning to find that not all of them play well together. So what I'm looking for is what people consider to be a comprehensive list of mods that integrate well with a few of the mods that are my favorite.

So from a game play perspective I love playing with:

• All of the near future tech
• Interstellar extended
• USI/UKS
• b9 aerospace
• community tech tree/community resource (required by several of the above)
• the MK2/MK3 stockalike expansions

For graphics and utility I feel like I've got most of what people reccomend:

• chatterer
• several contract packs
• distant object enhancment
• FAR (still a love hate relationship with this one but I love the procedural wings and have found I need far to make those work)
• KER
• Module Manager (required for most of the rest)
• Planet Shine
• Stock Visual Enhancments
• Mechjeb (i know some of it's cheaty but I can't live without the manuver node editor and manuver auto pilot) If anyone recommend a mod that had those 2 features then I could gladly live without the rest of mechjeb

I have discovered that I can't play with SMURF without some serious tweaking as something between SMURF Interstellar and some of the other mods breaks hydrogen and nuclear rockets.

 

Anywho I'm playing with a few others but those are kinda what I concider core to what I enjoy about KSP, I don't enjoy the unneeded complexity of remote tech and I'm not yet interested in the RSS or Real Fuels. So knowing that what other gems of mods am I missing?

Kopernicus and Outer Planets Mod. Should give you some really far away destinations for your high-powered KSPI engines.

CTT + "Unmanned Before Manned" for career.

Or ETT or any other non-stock progression tech tree for career (though I do not know how well those work with Interstellar, I just know that UbM + CTT works since I m involved there).

If you just do not enjoy the default/full remote tech but still like the general concept, I recommend RemoteTech + SETIremoteTechConfig (adds lots of ground stations on kerbin) + SETIprobeControlEnabler (so that you do not need a connection to control probes, just to transmit science back to KSC).

Something like Galactic Neighborhood and or a Life Support would improve a lot the challenge and the fun for long interplanetary or interstellar voyages.

If you don't already, I recomend CKAN Its great with that.
