If you start your deorbit burn shortly after flying over the peninsula before the KSC, you'll come down close to the KSC. Fortunately, the atmosphere gets thicker as you descend and if your impact point is low enough, you'll wake up from a short coma alive. But the ground is still coming closer at frightening speed. There, you can feel high g-forces as you slow down. Use left mouse button (LMB) and drag to do assume a horizontal attitude. Turn your body to maximize your cross section. Throw your chute to increase your area and drag to slow down. There you go, you deorbited without burning up.īut now the ground/water is coming closer. That will make you turn oddly, so stop thrusting during that turn. Do Eva packs work on Duna Information technology's useful to spring before flight if you plan on flying upward. Incidences of injury while using one have dropped to nearly 10 after sufficient training. It gives unparalleled mobility in space and low gravity environments but can be tricky to master. It has been so useful that some kerbals have taken to wearing them inside the complex, back home, and even in their showers. If it's retrograde (or heavily inclined), forget it. This switches the player from controlling the ship to controlling that Kerbal directly and that Kerbal will appear holding onto the exterior of their pod's hatch. The EVA jetpack has been a workhorse of kerbal astronauts for decades. I had to load my game about 10 times too, as I kept running out of monoprop. :D You just saved my ass after wasting literally 30 minutes try to get my kerbal back into the cockpit.
#JET PACK KERBAL SPACE PROGRAM CONTROLS HOW TO#
Go on EVA, activate your jetpack with R and go to a really low Kerbal orbit. I'VE FOUND HOW TO ROTATE A KERBAL IN EVA activate the jetpack, hold left click and drag the mouse. WTF? You're gonna burn up in the atmosphere! And if you don't, you're gonna die on impact! But what if I told you some BadS didn't burn up and survived impact? It's gonna hurt, but would you rather stay in orbit? Your choice. The SAS indicator will light to show if "rotate on move" is enabled (only if the jetpack is on though).So you're stranded in low Kerbal orbit (LKO) and Kerbalkind is too lazy to send you a proper rescue rocket? Instead they send a probe which whizzes by you and tells you you have to get down on your own. Set the navball to display your relative. The RCS indicator will light to show your if jetpack is enabled. The trick is to use both hands, one on WASD the other on IJKL and chase the retrograde when you are rendezvousing. The throttle gauge will display your current jetpack power level between 0 and 100%. On MacOS, this key is mapped to Option key.
#JET PACK KERBAL SPACE PROGRAM CONTROLS MOD#
This automatically sets your jetpack power to 10% for finer control.įinally, some Nav Ball customizations for EVA mode. KSP runs on different platforms, therefore Mod key differs between them. Precision controls can now be toggled using the same key as in normal flight mode (default is CapsLock). The default jetpack power level can be set via the "Settings" window. Jetpack power can now be modified any time through a slider in the EVA right-click action menu. Enabling it can make some EVA navigation a bit easier, but disabling it gives you more control. The EVA "rotate on camera move" setting can now be toggled any time by hitting the SAS toggle (default T). If you wish to remap them you can use the "Settings" window, accessible from the stock application launcher or Blizzy78's toolbar. I have found these work well in conjunction with the standard WASDQE controls (while letting you keep your right hand on the mouse for camera control). you can now do backflips and cartwheels on the Mun! By default the controls are mapped as follows: KERBAL SPACE PROGRAM Translate Up (w/ LS) Cursor Movement Board (w/ I-I) Toggle RCS Pack (w/L1) Focus Previous Vessel Jump I Let Go Orient (w/ 1.

No more awkward mouse clicking and dragging. The Kerbals can navigate outside their spacecraft by climbing. Kerbals have the ability to leave their pods and walk on the surface of a celestial body, collect scientific experiments, and perform untethered spacewalks. Pitch and roll can now be controlled with the keyboard. EVA) is any activity performed by a kerbonaut when outside of a command pod. No more wondering if Frolie Kerman is supposed to be an engineer or a scientist. Kerbal profession and level is now visible in the right-click action menu. This mod adds some features that are missing from the standard EVA experience. This is a revival of the old EVA Enhancements mod:
