Less wacky parachute landings (on EVA)

[MrFancyPL]

Hello, I suggest to make way for players to gently land their kerbals. I tried many many times land a kerbal, and I couldn't land without making kerbal "unconscious". I don't mean "auto landing", I think about manual smooth landing without kerbal hitting ground with his head. They should have some sort of "landing roll".

yes, very kerbROLL   

HAHAHa kill me

Spoiler

as for the poll, I chose yes, because why wouldn't be a good Idea!

Really good idea. It's quite annoying to see Kerbals land on their faces

Kerbals duck before the touchdown, as it's recommended, to protect the leg bones, then they fall down to put out the speed.
They need to land safely, not to show off.

If you land a chute faster than you can run, litho-braking will solve the rest.

I vote yes, but I think Squad did this intentionally because lol so kerbal.

It always looks like they're gonna break their necks. This is violent. But very Kerbal.

Maybe instead of completly deleting it, there should be some sort of option in the difficulty or options menu "Enable wacky landings"

Probably, some classic shutes can save the day. Parafoil is for sportsmen, making tired kerbalnauts to use that is smth cruel.

I don't think I have this problem. They sometimes trip, but unless I land them at 30 m/s or something, they usually are ok.

I've never had any trouble with landing Jeb after yeeting him out of a rocket at 20,000 meters. Huh. Maybe an advantage of console is better eva chute control?
