  1. I'm aware I'm probably doing it wrong, I just couldn't figure out a way to counteract it with what I know is in the game. Most of my ship is 100% symmetrical now, there are fins at many areas, as well as cones with a fairing I have changed the size, shape and model of several times and only minor differences are happening and the rocket tilts slowly without anything stopping it even a bit. With the fairing on it there's nothing not covered with it, the only bit that isn't symmetrical is the details of the station. It feels like the small imperfections in the ship should be easier to counteract so I don't know what else to add. Update: https://prnt.sc/r0gura This is the ship rn, it doesn't matter how fast I go, how much I try to manually steer its always fine for about 15 seconds, then around 25/30k it begins to slowly tilt like clockwork.
  2. I added a fairing to the top, it looks a bit silly with it on and only makes it slightly less of a problem. It also adds a new problem of it rattling so hard the rockets rip apart (even at low acceleration and m/s) . I've put cones at the top and at the first stage fuel tanks but it makes barely any difference. I don't understand how a few bits sticking out would cause a problem that can't be solved with the SAS modules, fins and RCS rockets. I don't know what else I can actually fit on the base that would make any difference, it just seems to turn slowly without any amount of counterforce making any difference, which it should. It seems like that only way to get a base off Kerbin is if it was laughably small.
  3. The Rocket it a bit oddly shaped atm, I've been testing the staging etc on Kerbin first. It's probably a badly designed moon base, and the rocket below is just what I made to test it on Kerbin. I'm not doing it for any other reason than to have a structure on the moon. Am I supposed to have the entire base with rockets lowering it down? And if so how can I fit enough fuel and engines below it so the landing gear will still reach. My Ship: https://prnt.sc/r0awug
  4. I am trying to put a base on the Mun. I downloaded a mods that gives you parts to build a base. I built the stage with the base but no matter what I do the rocker will always spin out of control about 10-15 seconds into the launch, the first 15 seconds are usually 100% fine. Adding wings, fins, RCS boosters, and modules to help stabilise the rocket all make literally 0 difference to the level of tilting that starts to happen. The base sticks out a bit but any base I would launch would have to be, and the things I've tried should counteract the tilting but it doesn't work. Is there any way to make the ship stable?
