Octopus Tanks

[KSCraft1771]

I made a rocket on tier 0 of Science mode [.24.1], and once I hit around 20 kilometers, the 4 exterior tanks, engines and all, started wobbling, and got worse as I went! I had to revert to editor because it was messing with me so much. Any tps on how to fix it?

My first tip is to ask for tips in the Gameplay Questions & Tutorials section.

Second, the reason for this behavior is that you had long, structurally unsound columns of tanks joined at a single point. The usual solution for this is to use Strut Connectors, but as you haven't unlocked those, you'll have to either find a way to construct the rocket with minimal long wobbly parts or scale back and build something more conservative until you have the technology to build large ships.

Not enough struts. Unfortunately, struts are not included in tier 0, so you just have to make the design smaller.

Pictures of the ship are necessary to help diagnose problems like this. Can you post some screenshots?
