Question about Kerbals on ladders in Atmosphere


Recommended Posts

Do Kerbals automatically get deleted if they\'re holding onto ladders in the atmosphere? I was trying to test a bigtrak-bus which transports Kerbals by making them cling to ladders on the back of the vehicle, but every time I switched back to the command pod I was using to source my three test subjects, the kerbals clinging on for dear life were deleted. The debug console said \'They were on rails in atmosphere pressure 1.0 and deleted.\'

Is there any way to avoid this?

In my attempt to make a similar vehicle on the Mun, I found that I couldn\'t switch vehicles whilst the Kerbal was holding onto a ladder. Maybe being in-atmosphere causes the Kerbal to be deleted, whilst allowing you to change vehicle.

Hmm, that\'s strange. I could have sworn I saw people putting their kerbals outside the ship and riding it into space.

Edit: Well. That was interesting! The kerbal was able to hang on while the bigtrak moved on the Mun, but when I started turning he slid up the ladder then went flying off the vehicle. Amusing ragdoll flight ensued. However that is a little annoying because now my bigtrak can\'t be used to bus kerbals! :(
