Do not use autostruts. In 1.4 they have been causing Bad Things to happen to people’s ships.

Have you tried 1.3.1?

Depends on what you are doing with them, or the ship afterwards. 

For example eople have reported their ships start shaking and eventually explode after docking, and this is a result of autostruts. 

If you use too many, your ships can do the same thing shortly after launch. 

Unless you are very frugal with their usage, and know exactly what you are doing with them, I wouldn’t recommend using them.

Is KJR still needed after rigid attachment was added to the game?

I used KJR a lot back, in 1.0, 1.1. But since 1.2, I removed it.

I use specific autostrut, and very few struts.

I didnt't see any problem linked to autostruts + struts. My biggest rocket is a SSTO Rocket, capable of orbiting 600T to 80km. The payload is linked to the rocket by only a 2.5m decoupler...

Why are you sure that your problems are linked to autostruting and no other bug ?

Mod question moved to the modding subforum.

I don't know if you can default to RA on, but with KJR, you don't have to click every part and toggle the RA setting.    It just helps with less monkey work in the VAB.

I think there's a way to do it if you change a game file somewhere... it will be one of those "=false" to "=true" jobs I'd imagine.

But yeah, you're right, it is a tremendous pain in the rear going through and changing all the parts...

For anyone visiting this thread looking for a solution to this problem, autostruts has improved, however they were not the cause of the wobbling when docking to space stations. That was because the reaction wheels in the visiting craft end up being so off from the combined center of mass that the overcompensate

Surprised nobody mentioned this: 

i play RSS (without RO) in 1.5.1 and this works great! Don’t worry about the old version.
