Odd... A Kerbin... No Helment.... Outside on Kerbin?

[Nightstar]

Hi....

Have some Test Pilots stu.... Looking around the abandon air port on the near by island. Some day will send a recovery crew. But today. Had a problem with a test jet. Try to land on that island. And failed. Went looking what was was still over there. Found the two where I left them. Staring at each other... But saw one was now missing his helmet? O_O Only though they took off there helmets inside of a large can? Or can he take it off other times?

I'm not 100% sure, but I think I heard somewhere that they are spawned without their helmets inside of an airplane cockpit?

[Orionkermin]

There's a command line in the internal .cfg that will make them appear without a helmet in the IVA. I don't know what would cause them to keep it off after they get out though.

Kerbals are evolving Soon, they will no longer require space suits on the surface of Kerbin. What a joyous news.

[Kasuha]

They definitely don't have helmets in the Hitchhiker module.

if both wouldnt have a helmet i would say someone secretly installed the "TextureReplacer" with the no-helmet mod But like that... nice bug.

Why is their a HUD on screen on EVA. Someone is playing funny buggers I'm guessing. Or that Kerbal stole Wonder Woman's aeroplane!

[Nightstar]

That was the only reason I could think of. Basically a "Feature". But I had them both walk to that spot after both ships had both crashed. And both had them on!

And except for the Decal module. Its stocked. I think...

Next time over on the Island. Will need to see why a Kerballlian does not croak without a helmet on Kerbal. I had assumed Kerbals lived underground in a methane atmosphere like world but the main atmosphere above is Air like Earth so would be poison to breath. In the hangers it has the air replaced with methane. One reason for the suites outside. Or could be they are allergic to pollen? Or they are so board over there as to do a dare contest? Well I can have my helmet off for...

Who knows!

I hope you this is really a bug, and you don't try to fool us with the mod texturereplacer?!?

FYI is KERBAL, they are Kerbals, the planet is Kerbin, the sun is Kerbol.

They are "controlling" the flag. Not the kerbal.

FYI "Kerbol" as the title of the Sun remains unofficial. The system primary is listed as "Sun" everywhere I can find in the game.

He was focused on the Flag.

removal of misleading yes

[RSwordsman]

FWIW, when you do an EVA report on Kerbin, most times they'll say "A spacesuit wasn't entirely necessary to get here, was it?"

[Guest]

Isn't that from TextureReplacer? Looks like a bug though, since one has a helmet...

FYI I already knew that but as a piece of the community lore is something good to know from the get go.

Looks like the flag is the focused object here, and as such would show that HUD.

Thanks Guys. Ok ok focus is on the flag.

Still think that Kerbal is in Wonder woman's jet.

[Javster]

It's the texture replacer mod

[Nightstar]

That's what I though. But why not both helmets?

It would be useful to be able to replicate this if you can work out exactly how it happened.
