Why can I build only small ships ?

[FredyC]

It almost looks like bug, but since I failed registering to bug tracker (didn't received email), I will post it here...

I create new career game with easy difficulty settings. Now I see that all building are fully upgraded, however those upgrades doesn't seems to be accepted by the game. For example I cannot build ships heavier than 18t or enjoy doing EVA in space. I even tried normal and medium difficulty, but it didn't changed a thing.

Thanks for the info what can be wrong...

is your VAB fully upgraded? the info panel you are showing in your VAB screenshot shows a maximum mass of 18.0t which ties in with a level 1 VAB

Are you using the Win64 version of KSP? There are issues with building upgrades in career mode with it.

This is a known bug with the Win64 build. The KSC scene in career appears fully upgraded, however their capabilities remain at the Tier 1 level.

Either switch back to the 32-bit version for the career games, or you can also move your save file to that version in order to access the building upgrades and play in 64 at other times.
