Can't Pick Crew Anymore?

[Steller dude 63]

Hello all,

I seem to have got a odd problem in the 1.7.1 KSP game.

For no reason I can't now choose any crew myself from the crew lists when

I am setting up the crew needed for a capsule before launch?

 

I have been picking them from the astronauts ( or is it Kerbinauts? )

without any problems sofar!  Then out of the blue with no adding or removing

of any mods that normally used for crew issues, I now can't pick any of the astronauts

from the astronaut center?  They show in the normal way in a list with all their types

of job they can do like astronaut or engineer etc. But I can't in-list any.

The green tick shows as I go to the end of their bar on the list and if I

click it the green tick area lights as normal, But they can't be picked to

be added to the available crew lists?

The 1st crew seemed to be have been picked for a 7 man capsule I was sending up

to a big space station I got up above Kerbin and the list of them were right for the needed

crew!

 

But now the system will not let me pick the astronauts? 

Any ideas?

All help be great.

Welcome to the forums.

You might be out of money.

Hiring kerbonauts costs enormous amounts of money.

You also may need to upgrade the Astronaut Complex building -- total crew count is limited at lower building levels.  According to the wiki, you can have a total of 5 with the Level 1 building, 12 with the Level 2 building, and unlimited with the Level 3 building.  (Though I believe you can  exceed these limits by doing the contracts to rescue stranded Kerbals)

Hello all whom replied to my post here! 

Sorry I not replied back since posting,

But the forum system is such that I was waiting for 

the moderator or the website controller of the forum to

allow me to reply to you lovely people by the system?

Seems unless the right conditions are set I can't reply!

This is the auto answer I get when I click on any of your name areas to reply by email >

"You are only allowed to send 0 messages per day. Please try again later."

 

I did ask for the admin to sort this out but still waiting so I thought

I have to reply to you all by using the same post a question area?

Sorry to do it like this. 

1 >  Aegolius13. thanks for the reply I can tell you the game I playing is 1.7.3 in sandbox mode so all the buildings are fully upgraded and I got unlimited cash.

2 > linuxgurugamer.  Thanks for your input, You say you need the log file & information of the game & the mods installed?  Well, I have found where the log file is and can copy it!

But the thing is, I can't pass it onto you using the service I been told to use as I don't use it or like the look of the terms of use?  Maybe I can use a link on a website of yours to send it? please let me know?

3 > bewing. Again money is not a problem as I am playing in sandbox mode!

Thanks for all your great ideas and I hope I can not only reply using the right system soon But also we can sort out the problems together with my game?

Hi Steller Dude, 

I think I had the same problem as you. I have a lot of mod installed such as USI life support and MKS. I think you have those mode installed too. I fixed the problem by hiring a new Kerbonaut in the crew building. The problem seems to come from the recruitment system. 

Cheers

Hi Onygan,

Thanks for the info?

I fixed the problem some time back!

For some odd reason, the thing that was stopping me 

from picking crew anymore was the better crew selecting mod I was using to auto fill the rocket capsules with the right Kerbinauts need for the mission i.e. pilot or engineer etc. 

This mod had a bug and I happened to have to remove another mod that was linked to this one using CKAN, and when the mods where re-installed by CKAN later.

The two mods were updated for the now used 1.8.0 I then got.

So it has been fixed. 

 

I think if anyone else seems to have problems with a once normal in use mod that had been installed by ckan they best check for any updates for those mods and if need be, just use ckan to un-install the mod and then re install it as any bugs be fixed then?

 

Happy flying.

Thanks for the update. It's probably worth pointing out that in general, if you have a mod that is intended to change the behavior of some aspect of the game, and then that aspect stops working correctly, the very first suspect should probably be that mod!
