Your Kerbals Walk differently?

[klesh]

Hi,

I'm not new to this game, but I just noticed this and perhaps I've missed something?

Currently I have 2 Kerbals out on EVA on Kerbin. They walk differently. One can take steps backward, sideways etc, while the other will attempt to rotate himself and can only walk forward.

Is this new? Is there a methodology to which Kerbals can walk a certain way? An engineer could take steps back and sideways, while a pilot is trying to rotate himself. I'll play some more and see if I can make sense of it.

Hrmpf, now that I've restarted the game, both of them are moving in the same rotational style. It's too bad, the other way (almost like Jetpack walking) was far more accurate when walking by very delicate structures.

It's a setting toggled by the alt key.

Ahh that makes sense. I was doing stuff which involved pressing alt. I never knew this existed! Thank you.

A year and one month in the game and I just learn this. Next you're gonna tell me that kerbals can run or look around while climbing up ladders...

One of the shift keys makes you run, but not both (I think it's the left-shift, because I remember it being the inconvenient one).

Never knew about the alt key, and I've been playing for more than two years.

They need to add a small GUI element to let you know which mode your in.

This needs to be updated perhaps?...
