Bill

If ive understood some posts on the forums right, the kerbals have a "badass mode" which is "on" for Jeb. But I think Bills badass mode had been turned on, at least partially, cause ive noticed hes not screaming as much, and he's laughing on the launch pad, when in .19 he would be frowning, and I also just noticed on the store site, the kerbal to the left, which used to be frowning, is now smiling, while the other two are unchanged.

One day at KSC...

Jeb: Hey, Bill.

Bill: *sigh* What is it, Jeb?

J: I got a new invention from Wherner. He wanted me to test it out on you.

B: Not having it.

J: I didn't ask. *ZAP*

And now Bill has been turned into a Bad A.

I've wondered exactly how their stupidity rating, courage rating and the badass flag affect their expressions. Has anyone tested it with Crew Manifest?

Stupidity seems to matter more than courage.

BA Flag overpowers all.

If this were not the case, Bob would be braver than Jeb.

As best I can tell, it works like this: Bravery determines how much it takes to scare that Kerbal (so a low Bravery score sends a Kerbal into a panic the second anything moves). Stupidity determines how long a Kerbal panics when something breaks or explodes (the higher the stupidity, the shorter the panic). The BadS flag seems to override Bravery entirely and makes the Kerbal in question always happy as long as nothing's breaking off or exploding.
