Modular Fuel Tanks / TAC Life Support incompatibility in FusTek Resupply Module

[sumghai]

The Resupply module is a probe core that is supposed to hold fixed quantities of TAC Life Support provisions in its front half, while having a user-configurable MFT tank at the back.

However, having both features active actually causes the Life Support provisions to not show up in the VAB/SPH, and any in-flight vessels with the Resupply module as it is right now becomes uncontrollable (KSP ends up trying to focus on the Sun instead).

Having one or the other work, but is obviously not ideal.

I've currently configured the module to just hold the Life Support resources, while waiting for a response from the TAC Life Support thread (author TaranisElsu is also quite well versed in MFT):

http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/40667-0-23-0-23-5-WIP-TAC-Life-Support-0-8-22Dec?p=1201529&viewfull=1#post1201529

[sumghai]

The latest version of MFT (v5.0.3) appears to be compatible with TAC Life Support - crew provisions now show up in the VAB/SPH, and any vessels containing the part load normally in the flight scene:

Further testing by end-users are required to confirm this.

Confirmed that bug has been resolved as of X0.04-4, provided that users has MFT v5.0.3 or later installed.
