Claw - Thanks so much, I can dare to EVA again. Your mod, presented earlier in this thread, works perfectly to prevent ejection. I never had an issue in 0.18 (though I was mostly using the 3 Kerbal capsule). I believe something was broken in the subsequent releases. The bug is still there 0.90 - they should really fix this for noobs. My scenario was the 1 Kerbal capsule on a trivial rocket well beyond the atmosphere, just trying to get science! Regarding the sliding on the ladder issue - I encountered it on 1/3 of the EVAs I tested with your mod. To address, a quick "space, F" sequence always worked for me. Perhaps that would be a good enhancement for the mod - not clear why "space, F" has a different result from your current code.
