  1. The issue is that there's no way to really tell if things are attached to the right surface or if it's attached to something else. I'll try to get a screenshot or short video up to show what I mean. Until then I'll try to clarify: I built a rocket. In career mode you don't have access to much, so everything looks like a derp stick (That's what I aptly name my rockets). I unlocked the radial decouplers and those Rockomax BACC Solid Fuel Booster. At first I tried upgrading my current derp stick to waste less fuel on launch, so figured those solid fuel boosters would be perfect. I add a new stage to the bottom of the rocket and put some radial decouplers around the outside. The next step is attaching the solid fuel boosters to them. I fiddle with the placement over the radials until they turn green. At that point I assume they are placed correctly. I move the camera around and they do seem to be placed on the radial (the radial face does seem to clip into things sometimes). Then in launch things can go two ways. Either the tanks just fall over and explode or the ship launches and when I activate the radials I see the parts fly off, but the tanks stay attached some other part of the ship. There's a bump when the rocket is loaded that doesn't seem to help either lol
  2. I have to admit that it's gotten me to the point where I'm so frustrated that I close the game mid launch. The issue I've been having is building rockets to do anything and progress the game any further. I build a rocket and everything seems to be attached. Take it to the launch pad and parts fall off and my rocket explodes. Alternatively, sometimes I manage to launch the rocket, but spent fuel tanks aren't ditched properly. I've just unlocked the TT-38k Radial decouplers and those are even more hit or miss than trying to attach tanks to the side of other tanks. My question is: Is there a way to see what exactly something is attached to or force something to attach to a specific part? I figured I must be missing something. For example, I put a "Rockomax BACC Solid Fuel Booster" as part of my rocket's body. I needed more lift so I attached 6 more around the first one. I assumed that because it turned green and allowed me to place the part that it was attached properly. Hit the Launch button and as soon as it loads tanks start falling over, exploding, and causing my whole rocket to come down or unable to launch due to lack of lift. I must be missing something because I can see many players being turned off by the game because they are unable to actually build something that works.
  3. Playing through Career type mode, I've been having most of my issues attaching things like Solid fuel tanks to the radial decouplers. Either I get it so it looks like the tank is attached to the radial decoupler but when I go to the launch pad, the tank just falls over and explodes. Or I get it so it looks like it's attached to the radial decoupler, but when activate it, the tank doesn't decouple. Since I'm in career mode, I don't have access to much yet and it makes it pretty hard to advance further.
