EVA Sexist Bug

[Dr. Kilgore]

Hello everyone,

seems I come to the forum only to report bugs... YAY.

So I started a career mode and finally upgraded my Astronut complex, sent my first ship to orbit and then... Well. My Pilot (Valentina) seems to get stuck in the ladder if I try to perform some EVA and I am left controlling and unmanned ship.

I really wanted some EVA science points, so after recovering the mentioned vessel and upgrading some stuff, I managed to send 3 kerbals into space: Valentina, Bill and Bob. So, I tried to gain some more science sending Bob to reset the experiments and then I saw it. Seems like I could control Bob on EVA. All good, seemed like the problem with the EVA was some puntual thing. Then I tried to perform EVA with Valentina, and the bug came up again. Then tried to perform EVA with Bill and it worked! So it seems that my bug is sexist.

Might be some problem with the feminine kerbals code? I really would want a kerbogirl out in space.

Thanks!

You could look at the 'how to get help' thread to do a proper bug report

Also, since you put this in the modded section, what's your modlist?

I'll note that I haven't run into that problem mentioned in the OP.

Did you use diffrent ships to send Val or Bob to space?

BTW, I detect a little feminism!

I'm going to guess, but I would assume that within the code, there is a single 'kerbal' object.

I'd be somewhat astounded if there was any reference to female kerbals in that object other than something akin to a $is_female variable.

The first time I used a ship only piloted by Val. The second ship had Val, Bob and Bill. Val was the only one who couldn't perform and EVA.
p.s.: did I say patriarchy again? dangit.

Are you having the problem with the same command pod mentioned in the steam community forum?
