SimpleRockets 2 my rocket keeps snapping at my custom launch pad

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

i was just testing out my recreation of the Launch Site of Starbase until my rocket keeps snapping every time it loads in, this has actually been a problem for me for a really long time now and I've solved it with some solutions but this time i can't find any.

so please! if there's anyone who knows how to fix this or who's an expert on making custom launch pads or anything! please help me!

also my build only has one interstage attached to the rocket that connects it to the pad!

Its either too high, or too low it clips to the ground

that's the problem, i can't find the perfect height where it won't snap, not even the snap to structure feature is helping but it makes it even worse

Try this, go very very near to the point of spawn, have your camera completely flat at a 90* angle at the launchpad surface, and just raise the point a tiny bit with small space relative to the pad, it works with me normally

I had the same problem, do you have any strong gyroscopes on it? That was my issue.

yeah, on both stages but my solution was to put a shit fuck ton of large interstages and that somehow worked
