How do I flip a Kerbal in EVA?

[Destroyed_Banana'D]

Most of us know the famous "head bounce" trick where you can land a kerbal safely from great heights by simply flipping over so he plummets head first into the ground. My question is, how do I spin the kerbal over so that he is upside down? When I'm in EVA the kerbals always stay upright all the time and can never flip, is there a button or setting I need to click to change this?

Welcome to the forums!

If you click-and-drag on the kerbalnaut in question, you can actually change the way he's facing. I think there's a way to change the control scheme for the EVA controls as well, but I keep forgetting what it is since I never think to use it.

Kerbals will orient themselves with the camera view, so cycling the camera with V can help, but really it's a matter of luck if you land on your noggin

Thanks! It worked and now my mortality ratio is only 2:3!

Use Jetpack and drag with left mouse button. It's a bit weird because tilting to the sides is reversed, but you get it soon.
