KSP Version: v1.2 Windows x64
What Happens: Launchpad explodes several seconds after launch if nose fairing is deployed prior to liftoff
Mods / Add-Ons: All Stock
Steps to Replicate:
While trying to fulfill two contracts with one ship, I built a small rocket consisting of:
1 Flea SRB
1 2.5m Fairing
1 Stayputnik Probe Core
3 Fins
1 Mk16 Parachute
The staging order was fairing, engine, parachute.
The fairing deploys normally and then the rocket lifts off. A few seconds after liftoff, however, the maxed out launchpad explodes.
Fixes/Workarounds:
-change the fairing to an interstage fairing or do not deploy before liftoff. (The pre-liftoff deployment is only a use case for contract fulfillment anyway.)
Other Notes/Pictures/Log Files:
Demonstration: (the video is using a "hammer" engine but it still blew up)
