Best* Space Station Parts?

[LitaAlto]

Anyone have space station part recommendations?

I'm looking for what is probably an impossible mix of features:

• IVA views of crew spaces--preferably not reusing the PPD-10 Hitchhiker Storage Container;
  
• Low RAM use;
  
• Few or no dependencies on other add-ons (again, trying to keep RAM usage low);
  
• Stockalike if possible.
  

I know about MKS/OKS but it doesn't have IVAs yet, and isn't exactly stockalike.

FusTek looks great but has a number of dependencies that have me shying away.

Porkjet's Habitat Pack is promising but it does have a couple of dependencies and is kinda large.

Any others I may be missing?

The Kerbin Shuttle Orbiter mod has some great station parts with IVAs.

Thanks for the recommendation, tygoo7. Alas, KSO kept crashing on me no matter what.

I'm going to try FusTek as it looks like I got that working.

if kso is crashing for you because of the memory limit try running ksp in opengl i got it running + 67 other mods (parts mostly + plugins)

To clarify, this was with -force-opengl. And Astronomers Performance Improvement. And ATM, and Texture Replacer. I think I lowered textures to half-res as well.

I'm thinking about creating a separate thread for posting one's favorite space station parts and why.

Meanwhile, I'm trying out Jhonny007's suggestion.

Also, I found out that someone made a centrifuge part based on Porjket's Habitat Pack. This could be awesome.

You could create a thread that acts as a repository for all spacestation type mods

That's not a bad idea, Zerro! What would be useful info to track? I'm mainly looking into whether there are internals, and possibly if they can generate science (although my space station is in Sandbox).

I created a thread here for those interested....
