4:08:01it all depends now on how much your lower stages are
4:08:01ksp players don't know the word less
4:08:04game tells you how much gas it chugs
4:08:06terrier takes longer to add thrust but is lighter and more efficient, swivel is less efficient but adds thrust faster and has better steering
4:08:09Hey Shiina, you want to know something REALLY funny?
4:08:10bottom stage should be liquid too at this point
4:08:16this is enough if the booster gets you in the right place
4:08:17That's gonna be extra floppy
4:08:23Those Fuel Tanks follow FLUID DYNAMICS.
4:08:27yeah that's probably good for that stage
4:08:31:face-red-droopy-eyes: she dont know Delta V chat :face-red-droopy-eyes:
4:08:35Bottom stage is liquid for steering cookie
4:08:45this won't flop. not big enough to flop yet
4:08:50I think people generally prefer liquid mains with strap on solids
4:08:50for control authority and so you can regulate speed below 200m/s
4:09:01solid = cheap and easy, but no control once fired
4:09:05Struts for the side boosters
4:09:15thankfully you don't need to worry about ullage in base KSP
4:09:17that is conventional for reasons, but you can do anything you want
4:09:24liquid core with radial boosters
4:09:31you could also add fuel tanks to the side and then discard those
4:09:32Boosters are fine for this, you are not going that far
4:09:32You can use struts to hold the top of your boosters to the main body.
