I see, but how do you enter a ID for a new post that I’m about to upload with kick stage@Innovare

@spacechallenger1986 I have similar rockets too, they're more powerful by a lot but they exist, the Peacealauncher, PeaceLauncher Heavy, PeaceLauncher Blossom and the XR-7 which is less overpowered. they have a kickstage which is used in my crew vehicles, but the Equinox works for lower mass payloads

Maybe you should make a rocket with a kick stage for other people so they don’t have to make their own you know you could have already made rocket@Innovare and a heavy version as well like a falcon nine and a falcon, heavy just to get a example, but your own variant

I originally made the Equinox in KSP as a super quick build and decided to see how it turned out in Juno, I think I like the result.
Finished it here’s the link https://www.simplerockets.com/c/Ktq69Q/Improved-falcon-nine
