My tip is to research about the dimensions of the crafts and find out what type or how powerful the real one uses. In other words, be patient in finding the most accurate reference even if it doesn't show up at the first link in Google searches.
What's yours?
I'm asking to hopefully help the community with classifying their works as percise like the real one. I'll quote nice ones.

    @Thelegitpilot13 you can also use fuel adapters to put engines everywhere you want

    Most rockets have really nice user manuals.
    Just stick to engine parameters (MarioG has wonderfull ones), dry mass, wet mass (for each stage), dimensions, no gyroscope/RCS if there is none, no mass tinkering (might be ok with structs. Those can become way to heavy) visuals and correct functionality are both important. I don't care if it is easy to fly, but it must have completed the mission at least once before uploading.

    Thanks, that’s good to know!
    Also, as I learned, use struts with cross feed for multiple engines on a fuel tank.
