i had to time my second stage so i could deploy it a fraction before the first would explode at 8000meters

I'm addicted to this game.  So far I can't get past 3000m/s on a multistage rocket.

Getting past 3km/s is pretty easy without mods if you use solid boosters for the initial launch, liquid for the long haul, and a single solid booster after that. You can get above 3km/s easy even without the last solid stage.

How do radial decouplers work? I want to have more than three engines in a stage.

Use linkage struts to reinforce the structure. Keeps things from getting all twisty in flight.

Also a very weight efficient way to hold the forces of multiple stages.
See those 3 stacks of 24 solid rocket boosters? Each stack of 24 has exactly ONE radial decoupler holding it to the 2nd stage.

Note the small linkages connecting the center three-way liquid fuel tanks.  Without those small links, the whole assembly spreads apart and develops a bad oscillating twist when the outer solid stage is firing.

And just at zero fuel separation:

yeah struts are nice to prevent the twist syndrome

I've had rockets fail from twisting too much

Got some zoomed out pics of that? Any in-flight ones too?

ergh, I hate linkage struts. Everytime i try to connect the second piece of it, it just disconnects the part I wanted to connect the strut to. It's like, click where I want the strut to start, no problem, click where I want it to finish, piece disconnects from the rest of the rocket

when you click to connect the strut, just dont move the mouse, that way you wont move the piece and you then click it back into position

except I'm using a laptop touchpad, and I use the actual mouse button rather than the touchpad to click, so there is no way I move the piece. And  half the time when I click to reconnect, the strut doesnt even finish. Gameis very buggy, but hey, its form like one man, so cant complain!

Also mods make this game wurst. Makes it too easy
