Launching Multiple crafts at the same time?

[JawaSP]

Hello! I have been searching all around the web and forums, and haven't found a single "answer" to this question. As you reading this may have suggested by the title, I wonder if it is possible to launch multiple crafts at the same time.

Im trying to make a video or movie kinda thing, similar to "Kerbals At War", And I want to make a fleet of craft. Is there any mod or technique to do this? If so, please tell me! Thanks for taking your time reading this and also maby answering it, but until then, Keep on Launching and crashing dem rockets!

Yes you can as long as they stay withing 2.4 km of each other.

Tips mechjeb can control other crafts than the one you fly.

its also mods who increase the distance where ships are active but I don't know who.

Thanks for the quick reply But I think you might have misunderstood me. (Probably because I didn't explain good enough.) What I meant was if I could launch multiple of my craft, by only launch it once. So say If I want a fleet of 15 tanks, and I don't want to launch all of the 15 tanks separately. Is there then a way to just launch like, 15 crafts at the same time by clicking the launch button once in the editor or something?

Yes - build a ship that connects 15 tanks into one piece, for instance with decouplers. When you 'stage' at start all those decouplers would release the tanks and you have 15 separate vehicles. As long as they are landed or within 2.5km of each other (as magnemoe said) they will continue to function, but you can only control one at a time. The Burn Together mod may help with that.

Thanks! I'll try it out right now

Each of these ships have their own control pod. However, you can only control one at a time. You will also lose any ship that strays more then 2.5 k while in the lower atmosphere.
