How the heck does RCS work? I've added it to crafts but it won't work. I have monoprop on the craft but it just won't work!

I have this same issue. I made my RCS nozzles equidistant from the center of mass, and nothing (in terms of rotation. translation was just fine). I noticed though that the rotation mode of the RCS worked fine when the nozzles weren't equidistant from the center of mass, i.e. the rcs was only at the top bit of my spacecraft, and I think that is where this issue lies. I think the game doesn't know how to induce a rotation when everything is equally spaced from the center of mass (I could, of course, be horribly wrong in this assumption in which case it would be neat to know what actually causes this problem).

I think it's going to be changed, but atm it only fires outward. So you'd need it far from the CoM and facing in the direction you'd want it to fire in order to get rotation. It's a pain, so I haven't bothered using it and am just waiting for multi-directional thrusters
