Quicker Fuel Use on EVA

[TheCanadianVendingMachine]

As the title says. Or, research better EVA packs, starting from ropes to what we have now. Enhancing the space suit and the KMU

Kerbal EVA packs are actually hilariously overpowerd, 600 M/s of delta V. Real life space suits have anywhere between 3 m/s (SAFER) and 24 m/s for the (MMU) I don't think an upgrade is necessary.

Plus ropes would be tricky and actually fairly worthless, since with any movement at all you would just wrap around your spacecraft.

an umbilical wouldn't be the worst thing in the world

So, lower Isp or higher thrust?

[Kegereneku]

I think he meant to make EVA less efficient until you've done research. A balance suggestion I wouldn't be against. I'm thinking about making a pictured suggestion for Parts-upgrade

By the way, put aside the difficulty of rope mechanic in a game I found the movie GRAVITY to be more than Kerbal enough.

I don't think EVA needs much tweaking, the only thing I'd finish would be the end to endless "get out and push".

But magnetic boots or some other way of traversing the whole surface of the ship in orbit (not just where ladders are) would be great. Maybe it could be derived from parts' ability of having things surface-mounted on them.

In the OP, I meant for them to have much lower ISP. By a lot, so it would have the same thrust, but instead of 10 minutes of fuel use, it would be 1 minute
