Game crashes without log errors

Hello there,

Here comes an issue. Maybe caused by ForScience but not sure... Maybe an other mod related bug...

My mods list.

Thanks for your feedback

Does not work with the new DMagic Orbital Science parts

no icons

i installed the mod into the gamedata directory, and it kind of works except that there isnt any icon to tell me if its on or on. the box is there, but there isnt any icons. any suggestions?

Experiments get moved to RC-001S RGU

Stored experiments keep getting moved to the RGU probe core. As a workaround disabling FS works if I want to have the experiments stored somewhere else.

I ran into trouble getting my experiments off of my space station, and the RGU kept snagging my stuff.

I also can't redirect the target of the experiment collection. Selecting a docked command pod and "control from here" still moves the stuff to the RGU.

Is this intended behavior?

Update for current version

This mod is said to be compatible with 1.4, it would be nice to bring it to current. Otherwise, can you suggest a similar mod?

ActiveContainer picking only command module

Trying to make ActiveContainer() to pick other experiment storage containers on the Vessel:

ModuleScienceContainer ActiveContainer() // set the container to gather all science data inside, usualy this is the root command pod of the oldest vessel
        {
            //foreach (ModuleScienceContainer experimentContainer in GetContainerList())
            ModuleScienceContainer container = FlightGlobals.ActiveVessel.FindPartModulesImplementing<ModuleScienceContainer>().FirstOrDefault();
            Debug.Log(String.Join("; ", FlightGlobals.ActiveVessel.FindPartModulesImplementing<ModuleScienceContainer>()));
            Debug.Log("capacity: " + container.capacity);
            Debug.Log("status: " + container.status);
            Debug.Log("storageRange: " + container.storageRange);
            return container;
        }

But have no idea how to tell if container is full on storage with experiments. For default command module The Attribute 'storageRange' is a float with 1.3 and 'status' is considered as 'string' and shows how many experiments actually stored there ( for example '5').

The default command module in KSP has in fact 20 limit in storage. I don't get how this 20 is described in 1.3 float number. Can you please help on this one?

ApplicationLauncher icon flickers on/off repeatedly

On KSP 1.1.2, the app launcher icon keeps blinking. It doesn't seem to go from green to red, but rather green to removed, then readded. Debug spam confirms:

[LOG 07:36:37.295] ScaleModList: listSize 861 maxListSize 674

This line is called whenever a button is added/removed, and with ForScience installed it happens every update.

Materials and Goo after 1.4.1

Hello.

It seems there's a problem with "SC-9001 Science Jr" and "Mystery Goo™ Containment Unit" science readings after 1.4.1 (at 1.4 it got the same problem). You need to go EVA and reset it manually in order to grab the science.

For other parts, seems works fine in my tests:

• Double-C Seismic Accelerometer
• PresMat Barometer
• GRAVMAX Negative Gravioli Detector
• 2HOT Thermometer

Didn't made extensive tests on "Atmospheric Fluid Spectro-Variometer", but it seems to work in a couple of flight I've made.
