I can confirm this.

I did a test with a pretty simple rocket in both 0.23.5 and 0.24.2 (pictures split below so you can compare side by side). This was done with the exact same .craft file. I copied and pasted it around. This also doesn't happen in 0.24.0. I did not test it in 0.24.1.

Here is the rocket in 0.24.2:
- Note the top of the solid boosters tipping in. There is also two pictures of the large decoupler with a 3 second time lapse.

And images of the same rocket in 0.23.5:
- Note the solid boosters separate cleanly. The 3 second time lapse of the large decoupler shows a much greater separation, and that's with a half full giant tank attached.

Sorry for re-post, I am new to bug tracker and was trying to make a more elegant report since my explanation here was poor. I though I was just updating this one but it generated a new ticket number. I better outlined the bug in bug report 2842 Once again, sorry.

UPDATE: Radial Decoupler issue seems related to "ModuleAnchoredDecoupler"
