"Landed" a craft on its engine, didn't really plan it but it stood stable. Went on EVA, moved away from the ship, as soon as the distance hit 50m the ship bounced off the surface.

This has also happened to me on various occasions.

Vall, Bop, Mun, Minmus. All have had support vessels bounce after reaching some distance. Different in each scenario, but usually under 1km

Same, had all the landing gear break off when the ship jumped when I was EVA away, saw it happen, didn;t get picks.

Also had the skiing feet in the same location. (Kerbal won't move without jetpack, frozen in angel pose)

In this case it stayed balanced on the engine and I took back off ok later.

0.1.3.2, identical situation, landed on engine (because the surface didn't register landing legs, or in fact a Kerbal on EVA, but that's for another bug report), this time on Eeloo. Precisely 210 meters away, lander bounced off. I moved few meters further, let it land back, returned closer, again at 210m distance it bounced.

Apparently this is related to flags being placed somewhere in the universe. Problem shouldn't appear as long as there aren't any flags, anywhere.

Yes to still happening in 1.4. 

0.1.4.0.25621
Win 11 22H2

RTX 3080 Ti

I get the "(ship name) on crashing trajectory at 200m and ship bounces at 1.1km.

Following illustrates. I jet-packed away directly backwards and forwards for these.

 

Starting out:

P.S. I went back and edited out of the .json file the one flag that was in this save and ship still bounced.

 

 

Hard to see, but ship is jumping sideways. In this case it disappeared completely. (probably far underground?)

So did it again with hud on...

Flew straight back to original point....found this.

P.S. Went back and edited out the one flag in this campaign and ship still bounces.
