Hello im relatively new to ksp and have just recently been able to land on the moon but no other planets. I was launching a probe that would flyby duna so i could plan a landing. As i built the rocket and launched it i had several problems but was able to fix most of them. But one still bothers me. Its 1st stage is a 2.5 meter orange tank with a mainsail engine. Then it has 6 boosters they have 2 of the extened out to the sides decouplers. They consist of to fl-800 tanks with a nose cone and vector engines When i launch these boosters wobble along the frame and always make me crash. (they bounce up and down and make it unstable.) This is why i added the second decoupler but it still does not work. Any help apprecated Thanks in advance.

I'm playing 1.2 on mac. I have a basic rocket: four FL T100 tanks in line one above the other, but the fuel drains simultaneously on each tank, making my rocket unstable and spinning upside down uncontrollably. Is there any option to manage/change the fuel consumption? In my previous games there was no such problem, or at least I haven't noticed it as I didn't suffer this much instability of the rocket. Sorry if this issue has been discussed before but I am a new user of this website. Thanks in advance! Alex

This may already be a topic, but after a quick search I couldn't find anything related. Is anyone else having a problem with extreme instability with docked space-stations and bases? Much more so than any previous version? I currently have a space station around Duna and am trying to piece together bases on Ike and Duna. I first really started seeing this issue with the Space station. If I try to use SAS to hold the station in a specific position, the base would soon start to oscillate back and forth until it eventually ripped itself apart. I tried to disable most of the SAS modules on the various remote guidance units I had on each station piece, but it still seems to wobble out of control. I then built a base on Ike. Put down a ISU converter piece and a driller piece and docked them with a few fuel pipes and a main communication battery. It seemed stable at first, but when I returned to the base after a few days, the station wobbled completely out of control and ripped itself apart in about 3 seconds. I was able to "fast-forward" and resume over and over to keep the station long enough for me to disable all the drills, retract them and undock the drill unit from the rest of the station, but it was a really frustrating process. Is anyone else having problems with really unstable docked stations? Any way of avoiding/getting around this? Thanks!
