Some questions about the VAB & Space Planes

[Zatie12]

Hi folks,

Loving the game! I have a couple of questions that I've been unable to find the answers for, I'm sure you guys will know!

Firstly, the Mk3 Fuselage only contains LiquidFuel (no Oxidiser) so it doesn't appear to the possible to directly fuel rocket engines. What's the best way to fuel rocket engines attached to a space plane? I can't find a source of Oxidiser without attaching large standard fuel tanks.

In the VAB, how do I assign a role to the Control Surface object (e.g. aileron / elevator / rudder)? How do I specify component properties in the VAB (e.g. lock the gimbal on a rocket engine)?

Thanks very much!

You can't assign rudder/elevator/aileron roles to a CS, unless you use the FAR mod. To lock a gimbal, you either right-click an engine, or assigns it to an action group.
