make inventories 3rd party items compatible

[tonimark]

really?! I though that this update will be much better than the good old KIS and KAS since we would no longer have errors and also more features too until I discovered that is was MUCH WORSE as you can only use STOCK ONLY items for inventory (i have seen some mods who can work with it too but its limited and low) the space exploration doesn't make sense if you can use non-stock items such for life-support mods like kerbalism and also for science mods too like DMagic orbital science (yep i know its old mod but it still works fine..) , I would really appriciate to see modded items to be used for these new containers too .

How about you want until those mods get updated for 1.11 to support the new inventory system? It’s not something that needs to change in stock KSP, the mod parts need to have the required flag/module/whatever added to their config files to let the inventory system recognise them. It’s up to the mod makers to decide a) if they’re going to support the new inventory system at all, and if so b) what parts are going to be supported.

While I haven’t done any poking around in the 1.11 files, I would expect that knocking together a generic module manager patch to add the necessary inventory compatibility to any parts that didn’t have it would be fairly simple, though the volume part of the equation might prove to be more challenging.

its ok for kerbalism but i want to attach these DMagic orbitalal science  to be attachable , i want science and this mod is out of development for years

You can literally do this with a module manager patch.  And I already updated some of my own mods to use the new system.  As noted by @jimmymcgoochie, maybe give mod makers a chance to implement the new system?

Sounds like a pretty good idea to me.

I suppose a lot of us are curious about how one in particular will adapt to the new inventory system. Well, we need to wait a bit more

You know, some of us have real lives outside of KSP.  Sometimes outside responsibilities take priority over doing unpaid work. 

The inventory change is pretty significant, it's  going to take some time.

Some patience and appreciation for the work that modders do will be appreciated.
