Put the staging system BACK

[ZooNamedGames]

I have started a career today and I started making ships and the staging diagram seemed to be broken at first, moving whole groups of engines instead of just one set, then I realized each engine is counted in the diagram (engine 1, engine 2, engine 3, etc) as part of a group. Please Squad, I rarely complain about your decisions as I find ways around the problems but I feel this overcomplicates the staging system as well as making it far larger. For rockets with 100-200 engines through various staging, especially 1st stages (which remember, with 1.1 people are making larger rockets since they are no longer limited by the game) which can have lots of engines and if you use x6 or x8 symmetry then your going to have 8/16/32/64/128 engine icons your needing to move rather than one.

Please go back to the old system we knew. I respect your decisions Squad as it's your game but this is just one time where I want to speak out.

Wait, so squad removed staging groups?

 

if so, NOOOOOOOO

[lrd.Helmet]

staging groups haven't been removed. Just don't double click. click-hold-drag

What in the world could POSSIBLY require 100+ engines?

What if you need some within a group and not the whole group?

click. then double click the specific engine in staging.

Has it changed?  It seems to be working the same way it did before.

The only issue I found is that it likes to reset your staging when removing multiple stages and putting them back later. Which is annoying, but not the worst thing.

You can now drag engines instantly and don't need to klick them first to expand. Otherwise they work fine (and better with that addition), I don't really see OPs issue...

How  would you glue together N1 stacks, tho?

You could always do that.

EDIT: Nope I was wrong, I guess you couldn't.  Strange, I didn't even notice.  I'm not sure why you wouldn't want this though.

Well duh! By putting in another N1 upside down obviously.

[Rath]

you see, you hold them together by the deployed grid fins, tovarish.

Now pass the vodka.

Yep, the whole staging is a bit fidgety, bit that's also because it is much, much faster. Very nice comfort change, especially for complex rockets.
