EVA failures from external command seats in service bays.


Recommended Posts

Hi.

I have visual only mods: parallax, EVE, planetshine, scatterer and the dependants that CKAN believes I need.  However the trouble I've had also struck me pre-mods, so I'm not currently blaming the mods.. also I have no known "ship mods".

I build most of my ships using Service Bays (if I'm feeling generous) and external command seats..   otherwise, just the seats.

Occasionally when I EVA a Kerbal from an external command seat within a Service Bay, even if I make the effort to ensure there's no clipping on exit (as that can fling my Kerbal out into space), I can get a weird bug where the EVA pack malfunctions..  I note the SAS system is set to on and can't be turned off. when I engage the RCS the pack is active without my input and the thrust gradually increases guzzling propellant, after a 3 or 4 seconds it hits max and pushes my kerbal off in some uncommanded direction.  Only once did I manage to recover the situation by hammering multiple keys, I can't tell you which magic combination got sanity back.

It feels like the SAS is trying to take control when it has no business doing anything.. but I'm probably wrong.

I would love to know what the underlying cause is, my thoughts are some part clipping abberation.. knowing what to look for would really help.
