Sky Kerman Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I think there should be round chutes and bace chutes. You should be change the type of eva chute. So you dont need to try to land them all. Round Chutes just make the kerbals flote down like normal chutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceFace545 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 That would be cool and kinda useful. Also maybe an abort feature where you're kerbals will "evacuate" from the craft so you don't need to keep switching back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bej Kerman Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 A small QOL feature is to just have the Kerbals attempt to stay in formation so that even players who find classic chutes a bit boring can still get everyone down in a small area without juggling.

I think a good way to implement this would be that you start with the round chutes, then a little way down the tech tree you then get to the steerable chutes. And it could be that the steerable one weigh more and take up more space, so if you are tight on cargo capacity or weight, then you gotta make your decision on whether you want basic chutes to save on weight and space or advanced ones for more safety but take up more space and weigh the craft down more. (that may be jumbled, I’m tired lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Round parachutes are still preferred if you don't need to steer as they are lighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
