Using orbital habitats

[Droll]

It's clearly in response to hammer58 who said:

Perhaps pop caps under 1 million caused my issue?

Don't know how I missed that

Bit of an necro but related. Any reason why I can't build this Orbital Habitat from the Industry tab on my home planet of Earth? When I select the "Space Station" drop down, the list is empty. It has not been marked obsolete:

This design is classed as a Commercial Vessel for maintenance purposes

In Class Design you need to select the no armour option.
When you do the design will say something like "this design is classed as a space station for construction purposes".
One other thing, you need a Spaceport on the planet, in the off chance you moved it.
