What's the best fix for wobbly stations in 1.12.1?

[DeadJohn]

Has anyone found a good solution for building large stations in 1.12? These tricks no longer work reliably:

• Autostruts can no longer connect across docking ports in 1.12.
• KJR (both forks, Next and Continued) already had issues with 1.11, especially after engineers attached new parts. I don't think 1.12 changes that.

eva an engineer and weld on regular struts for connections you see being semi permanent.

USI Konstruction mod maybe... with it you can weld docking ports together - making a connection like it was built in the VAB (the pair of docking ports go *poof* and marry the two feuding sides together better than Kork and Kindy)

A whole lot of docking ports, to make ridiculous ring stations.

Yeah, I haven't really found a satisfactory solution either.

I was kinda hoping that this change would be reverted. I used to have a lot of fun EVA-strutting my stations together.

Just like to add that I have the same issue.  Even adding EVA struts has not cured the problem, they are like bungee elastic.
