Physics bubble & parts recovery

[VoxTM]

Hey guys.

So in one of the first contracts I build a rocket made of solid boosters with double radial parachutes attached to each and activating along with decouplers. The boosters survive individually when I focus on them, however (as far as I know) when I keep focus on my main rocket the landing doesn't get calculated and the parts disappear.

Is there a way around it? And if not, I guess implementing an auto-recovery calculation would be a nice feature rewarding cost-effective play (taking into account surface speed at landing and crash allowance).

If I'm reading your post correctly, the mighty Scott Manley actually did a very nice video on this dilemma:
