[What did you do in KSP1 today?]

I "accidentally" made jeb stuck.... oops!

played in sandbox thats it

[My First Rocket That Worked]

My first rocket that actually worked. I still feel proud of this basic rocket

[What did you do in KSP1 today?]

Alot starting from wasting my time fixing a rocket to getting loads of science and learnt alot of new stuff!

[Why does my rocket keep flipping?]

No wonder it’s flipping- you took off the only thing that was keeping it stable, the fins. You need to keep the weight as close to the front and the drag as close to the back, and fins will both add a little drag and passively correct your course if it drifts out of line. Without any fins on it, any deviation from prograde will be amplified by thrust and the heavy SRBs on the bottom will make it very unstable, causing flipping.

Put some fins on both the Hammer SRBs- basic fins will probably do- and if necessary on the LF stage too. Get rid of the radiators and heat shield below the capsule as just by looking at the rocket I don’t expect it to get much further than LKO where re-entry heating is minimal, but put a decoupler between the last stage and the pod or things could get a bit dicey on the descent.

I don’t see the point of using that many SRBs in a stack, you’d probably be better off with a liquid fuel engine with radial SRBs if necessary to boost its launch TWR to help it off the pad. LF engines have better fuel efficiency than solids and can also be extended by adding more fuel tanks, plus you can add steerable fins to the bottom to make it even easier to control it.

Okay Thanks! I am new to the game and I don't understand much.

heres a updated one:

It may be the case that your craft is so that SAS can barely keep it stable following prograde, in previous iteration you got away with it, this time you just steered to much. 

In any case, there are many possible causes for the issue and, without picture are kind of blindly throwing some ideas. Maybe we get lucky and find some solution, but it is a whole lot more likely if we can take a look at the craft.

You can share pictures through a sharing site like Imgur. Console players can use their phones to take pics of their screens and do it that way. 

As a guess, it sounds like part of the problem is that you're relying on the solid fuel engines (Hammer and Flea), and they do not help with steering. 

I found out how to add images using discord media so heres the rocket:

@Ikkjotto avoid cluttering the forums, I've merged your topics.

Under your profile, you can click "edit profile".

Most of your questions can be answered by reading the links I have already provided.

okay thanks!

[Weirdest space fact that you know]

I don't know if this is either weird or shocking but the fact is: Space is completely silent 

Its weird for me because here there is almost no silence even at night. Also for you people who know this and think its not really weird it is for me. for some reason

[Question for the forums]

I heard that you can change it from your profile but I can't seem to do that. I went to my profile and saw nothing called  "Add Description" or "Description" 

Could someone help? I am on mobile by the way,

[Question for the forums]

oh thanks!

And I don't think you noticed the link I provided which includes a link that goes to a thread called "How to use The forums", which describes exactly how to post pics on the forums.

Oh I didn't see it I thought that was you replying to me but thanks!

I just read it and I didn't seem to find anything helping with pictures and links. Are you sure its there?

Could you post a picture of what you're seeing?

I don't think you noticed but I can't send pictures because when I try it says "Insert image from URL" and there no way to drop the picture in like you can do with the profile pictures. 

Also what I saw was basically this

:warning:  forum.kerbalspsceprogram.com

the thing that it should be is

:Lock: forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com

For this forum it is locked but for some older ones lets say What did you do in KSP Today it has a warning symbol.

Lock basically means the website is secure but warning is basically not secure. 

[What did you do in KSP1 today?]

I tried to fix a rocket that kept flipping but i failed. Damn I wasted alot of time.

How about sharing a picture of your ship?

picture of the rocket

I cant send pictures but I can tell you what it had

saved(not the newer one): It had the mk1 cockpit and parachute and 2 RT-10 Hammers. For the other one I had parachute, mk1, pressure and temp log thing, and a heat shield 1.25m then a medbay and antenna and then it was one liquid fuel and then 2 rt-10hammers and one rt-5 flea

[Why doesn’t my science save?]

Never mind I found out what was causing this I was looking at the science I had not the science I earned. I just did start science mode 2-3 days ago so I didn't understand much

What warning sign and lock are you seeing?

Website Link. On most websites I see a lock and on some forums here it had a warning sign I don't know if its just me but it does have a warning. I do have pictures but I still have no clue how to send a picture. 

[How do we add more than one item at once?]

I have watched some tutorials and stuff and I've seen people adding more than one item at once (same item) for items like engines. I'm on PS4 how do we do this?

[Question for the forums]

Is there a such thing as a description? I have been looking at forums and I see writing/gifs under the "Quote" button.

[Question for the forums]

Im new to the forums so I don’t understand some stuff

One for your profile picture can you use gifs? 

Two why when your looking at a forum it has a warning sign but when you go back to the home page it has a lock? Isn't it supposed to be locked for both?

Also 3 how do we add photos on mobile.? I know it says add a website but how do we do that on mobile?

[Why does my rocket keep flipping?]

I made a rocket and when I launched it, it kept flipping so I thought it was a issue with the rocket and then when I used another rocket that was in my saved that never crashed and flipped just flipped near 20,000-25,000m in the air. Is it a problem with the game or mass? Because I know that the saved rocket never flipped.

also I was in science

[Why doesn’t my science save?]

Now I made a few rockets and i started to notice every time i get science the last time i got it it wont add up.

lets say the first flight I got 5 science then the next flight i get 5 more science. It shows up as 5 still. Shouldn’t it be 10?
