KRAKEN SOLUTION HERE!!
Matt, there is a simple solution to the Kraken death shake problem. There is no need for strut spamming, or turning off auto-strut or SAS, warping, etc Notice, the problem only happens with complex ships or when ships are combined/docked. Two docked ships effectively create one complex ship. What they all have in common are multiple possible control points. The problem appears to be the result of confusion/competition between those control parts (command pods, probe cores, docking ports, etc.) as to whom is in control of the ship.
SOLUTION: Simply right click on ANY part with the option "Control from here", and assign control to that part. It doesn't matter which one you choose, and the Kraken goes away. It's just that simple.
I discovered this solution years ago, and have not lost a single ship to it since.
Good luck!
Thank you Good Samaritan. I have lost to many ships to the Kraken, but no more. On to the nest reason for rapid unscheduled deconstruction.
@@justsomedude4547 You are most welcome, my friend. Please spread the word. I have been trying to bring this simple method to Matt Lowne's attention for years, but apparently he doesn't bother reading comments. He still needlessly loses craft to this issue regularly. It's a shame. If you find ways to improve it, please let me know. So far it has been 100% effective.
He smort
Also disabling sas helps
@@maxslepoy8081 There is absolutely no need for that if you follow the simple steps I outlined.
"If you are not familiar with how things crash in KSP, you are not playing it properly."
Made me smile, thank you.
Me too
I think he underestimates how many people watch his videos but don't play (anymore).

Wait, really?!

Since Matt forgot (again), here's a whisky review for you all:
today we have highland park valknut.
it has a rich taste, and is very well defined. definitely not something to just do shots with, but a flavour to savour.
nice
Out of 10?
Valknut. These are rare nuts that are difficult to harvest due to their ability to "valk" away from the harvesting unit.
Thanks. I got clickbaited again!
The one brand of whisky I've had was very aptly named - dragon whisky.
It tasted like fire, and burned its way down your throat. But when I turn 18 this year, my brother wants to get me a flaming sambuka. That is quite literally drinking flaming alcohol. I am very apprehensive about trying it.
Matt: talks about the lifting stage.
Also Matt: builds a small spaceplane.
Me: How is that going to get the craft to orbit???????
That's an escape craft...
Sam An1mates r/wooosh
same. lmao
he would find a way......my god VIDEO IDEA...
@@sodaithink wow... It's almost like the comment wasn't a joke...
I build really large stuff, but once it goes beyond some point I need "kerbal joint reinforcement".
It’s kind of cheaty but actually calms the kraken a lot! try it.
What is the kraken
@@christianletzerich6523 a glitch that causes the big crafts in the game to be destroyed without reason.
Like this man so Matt can see!
Christian Letzerich The kraken is the animistic personification of ksp’s bugs and glitches. Like most games, KSP is held together with duct tape and elbow grease. It works fine for simpler craft, but, as things get more complicated, the game has a harder time keeping everything working properly. The more pieces you have interacting in a craft, the more places there are for something to go wrong. With massive craft, mods like Kerbal Joint Reinforcement help by making the craft much more rigid. This can prevent some of the more dangerous and destructive glitches and interactions.
@@TheArtikae that was unnecessary but ok
Even "gigantic" seems to be an understatement
I would think that gargantuan would be the most apt term. That could in itself be an understatement, though.
I feel like vast could work
Ever heard of kerbol zero

Matt, do you reckon it’s possible to create a single vessel which is just one large ring around a moon or something
oh hey look, its the red sparrows. hi!
Like Gilly or minimus?
It’s definitely possible however it would take lots of time and it might be tricky docking lots of parts together let alone one mistake and it all blows up
This was tested by someone a long time ago I'm pretty sure. May have been Scott Manley or Danny2462, I don't remember. Long story short, though: No.
The simplest reason is that the game puts the centre of a craft (and thus the point at which it calculates altitude) at the centre of mass or somewhere thereabouts. If you build a ring around a celestial body, the COM will be deep inside said body and the craft will likely explode. Realistically, though, you wouldn't be able to get that far before exceeding the physics range or encountering the Kraken, or a number of other issues.

Did you have a stroke?
19:10 fail or not, I would love to see a short film of the Kerbals having to go EVA to get to the escape vessels. Maybe add a touch of Michael Bay.
Well he could use the Kraken attack as part of the cinematic.
Matt Lowne, I have the same problem with my massive Station here. I used physics range extender to increase the area in which the game precisely calculates physics from something like 100m to 300 or 400 and it solved most of the problems but this still happened but much less often.
I suggest you give it a try, but disable it once you stop using the craft
I was having problems with my super station and narrowed it down to the rotors in the gravity rings. My advice to Matt is to stop the rotors before he launches the refueler.
Try my Kraken fix I offered in my previous post. The monster is easy to slay, and it doesn't return.
Don't feel bad, seeing "even you" fail at something in ksp makes someone out there okay with failing a few times themselves.
The thing is, he didn't really fail, the game physics just couldn't handle it. His design was fine and technically, if the game wasn't so unstable when dealing with massive crafts, this would be completely possible. Hopefully ksp 2 improves on this.

A few thousands*
The strutting is literally a spiderweb
Edit: the small fuel tanks even look like flies trapped
"Lost the will to live, don't need this stress in my life." Refreshing to hear Matt say that. I had to take a break from my Eve craft construction, it was getting really frustrating, even though I'm probably 90% done.
More power is always the answer
MORE BOOSTERS
I believe the scientific term for that is "The Robbaz Theory" 😂
@@Mr_Jish it's actually called "The Clarkson Process" but okay....
communism at its finest
Big Dumb Booster
MATT THERES A SOLUTION
I was messing with my own ship of this scale a few weeks back, and I’m 97% sure that it’s the rotors. Shut down the gravity rings before you launch the refueling craft and try it again. This should work, best of luck!

@Dash Kerman Once on a Swiss001 video it was like 6 minutes before it shows
I just caught your videos. I've been getting back into KSP. And I'm hooked watching all the things you do. Way more than I can do. I've forgotten most of the controls and how to's, nor can I pull off all the awesome missions you got. Loving the video man, and definitely subbed.
Hi Matt, I watch the velocity lake series and your ksp videos even though I play neither of the games and I always enjoy them, sadly I dont have the cash to pay for a pc good enough to run either game, thank you for these videos since they are always fun to watch.
10:30 I love aerodynamics.
LMFAOO
I’ve loved KSP for years, and I’ve admired you and many others building these amazing ships and stations, getting into perfect orbits and getting to other planets, I bought KSP for Xbox since my laptop can’t run a game, and seeing that it’s a wee bit harder on Xbox I can’t seem to do it, but keep up your work my man! Much love!
Love your videos Matt, A KSP noob and your videos are my favorite to learn/entertain. Thanks to you iv landed my first duna mission! Keep up the content and stay safe during lockdown.
watch this: open kerbal space program
2 minutes later: exit game
crash game
way too true, I'll launch it expecting to be able to make something but absolutely nothing creative comes to mind
For me, my system breaks down.
Turns out, 32 GB RAM and Vega 8 on linux with Vulcan drivers ain't enough
That is a nice station I could never build like that you the best station builder
Thank you Matt, I enjoyed the Video and appreciate the Time and Effort you putted in... Thumb Up!
The way you said it just blowed uo.....absolutely had me in tears from laughing....Been a fan for multiple years on TH-cam, love the vids...thank you
Nice video
16:30 Matt, it is a conversation, I'm answering you right now)
Amazing build matt!
Hey matt love your videos, keep up the good work!
God i wish my computer could handle something like this. This stuff looks so cool. One of the reasons I'm so excited for KSP 2. As a side note, could you do some RSS videos? I think that would be a lot of fun. Regardless keep up the yeet my bro.

Awesome station. Thank you. More videos please.
thanks for all the videos matt
We all are waiting for the velocity Lake episode that’s just you screaming for 40mins
Something that occasionally helps keep my crafts from deciding to end themselves in that sort of situation is by turning off SAS, often (especially with probe cores) SAS makes craft tear themselves apart (for me at least)
THAT IS INSANITY!!! when you were building it i was very doubtful that it would go off the ground at all, then you literally got it in orbit. You are a true master.
YES MORE KSP

Matt in literally every video: I hope that made sense
Now make sure your normal, anti-normal, periapsis, and apoapsis are balanced before you turn retrograde or prograde for your circularization burn.
And then gives no explanation for what any of those mean.
I like it, great job on the space station Matt!
matt i dont care if you couldn’t fuel the entire space station, I am one of those people that doesn’t even play ksp, im here for the fun content and watching you create the most amazing crafts (like these) I couldn’t even begin to create even if I had the game
thanks for this absolutely ludicrous video :)
There is a KSP-like free mobile game called Spaceflight Simulator. I highly recommend it as a “trainer” for KSP. It uses lots of the same physics as KSP, except it’s a 2D environment making it easier for the user, and it makes Kraken-like glitches very rare. I highly recommend it if you’re interested.
Kinda reminds me of the Resolute from Lost in Space.

I don’t know how you build these I could never do this! 😂
Lol I know the feeling
Thanks for I seeing my advice for clouds!
I love your videos man keep it up
not as big as jo mama
Oooooo
I agree. Jo's mama is pretty big.
Same happened to me where the station imploded from "The kraken", I just wanted to test out the SOS probe but no my station wanted to go kablooey. You can add struts to the rings for support.
The Grian of KSP. Love the content!
Great vid for the time u had for it
Matt has built a massive space station and I can’t even remember to add radiators to mine. Awesome vid! Keep it up!
you have some beautiful scenery up in space
I had one successful station where I used a large toroidal ring (mod) as a central anchor point for every other part. making the ring the one 'denominator' for movement/flexing etc
Matt we bloody love you!! you hero !!!. You are a true NHS hero and the whole nation thanks you for what you do.
YES HE DID it I always wanted to seea base like that Epic
Matt is a legend for the Kerbals. They like Matt’s buildings and will go down in Kerbal history. :3
That absolute noodle of a space station is the coolest thing I've seen all week. 〰
A really enjoyable vid. I can't get a station a tenth this size off the ground, let alone into orbit. You are the Mozart of KSP. And yes, I'm sure this station will fly again. Oh, and good job in beating the Kraken to the end of the video!
Your very creative you made a space station without thinking about the designs, you just went build build build.
I cant even think of a design for my own satellite
Sorry to hear about your difficulties Matt. Still a very enjoyable video!
O M GOSH THAT SPACE STATION
Love you matt!!
Had the same week. I could record for you my whiskey commercial if you think it would help. "Yes, the whiskey of the week is Canadian Mist. It's not just any whiskey as I love all whiskeys. Except Southern Comfort, Jack Daniels and any Scotch . My G-d whom would drink Scotch . It taste like it has been ran through a two year ago gym that hasn't seen a wash since it was made. But the taste of a cool and crisp Canadian Mist. The drinks of drinks." Maybe that will help Matt.
The amount of aerodynamic drag 9:45 would be so ridiculously immense and those "centrifuges" so to speak would break off
But we're in a game so doesn't matter
Matt, you definitely earned a glass of whisky for your perseverance in making this craft. It looks pretty, really nice for a static shot. If only it didn't suffer from Kraken-itis
I use auto strut on my rockets and spaceplanes and it works without fail. I am using Ferram Aerospace Research, so it is modded physics, but autostrut has saved many spaceplane prototypes from the wing wobble and warping Kraken. So far, no Kraken attacks on my rockets with auto strut. I don't think it would work with your station though, it's just too big and complex, particularly with rotors.
When I was playing ksp (I don't now because life) I once did a build similar to this and i got tired of it constantly failing for no reason other than kraken so i broke it up into several different stages like the cor went up then the rest of the station then refueling was also the same result so the solution to said problem is really see how small big you can go with the kraken attacking (as well as restarting the game somewhat helped) and then just do several of those until its fully refueled plus if you want to I heard there is an actual refuel station under the bridge at KSC that if connected to it would allow you refuel the refueler and make one continuous mission otherwise its send up a refueler, refuel station, bring it back, recover vessel, go to wherever refueler is and rinse and repeat
so freaking epic!!
I've had really good luck with the autostruts, but my rockets tend to be a bit more... sensible. Usually I just use it for things like SRBs for getting off the pad and it's great for keeping those from moving.
I half expected it to explode after Matt finished the end screen commentary.
Juste one word WOW
I've made stations this size before. I split the station into 3 smaller sections and assembled them in orbit. Also consider using solid rocket boosters as a structural part, like for the spokes of the rings. This will reduce part count.

Why I like watching Matt his videos: he is very entertaining (especially when he does a wine review 😂) and he is one if not the only person still actively uploading ksp content 😁
If content of this incredible quality almost made the scrap heap... I wanna see the scrap heap!!🙌🙌🙌
I feel like this man can do ANYTHING in KSP
I had a similar issue when building a massive space station. It holds over 500 kerbals (560 if I remember correctly) and was assembled by docking massive sections in orbit. When trying to put the finishing touches (literally pieces just made of girder units with docking ports on the end to park space-planes...), the entire station would wobble to pieces when I got close to it. It's a beautiful piece of useless junk (on my PC it takes 7 real seconds for one in-game second to pass) holding many, many kerbals. I still view it as my greatest kerbal accomplishment, and making something big enough to be rejected by the physics engine is an accomplishment in itself. If people are interested in seeing it, I'd be happy to share my save file. It only uses stock parts.
It's fine if you have to take your time on these videos mate, what you're doing is important and very much appreciated
Love to see a fail and crashes/kraken complication 🤷♂️ love see the aftermath of crashes and potential recoveries or trying to save a damaged craft is sometimes super fun 🔥💥
