Kerbal Space Program

Since this is an issue only for rockets that have been freshly launched from the ground, there are several workarounds. Switching focus to something else will destroy the ability to revert, but will prevent the bug. You can also take a savegame before any EVA, and if the EVA fails then reloading the savegame and doing the EVA again will succeed.

I got the same error while in space, from a not-freshly launched ship. The caveat there is that I have several mods installed, but looking at the logs, the error message is identical. The difficulty is that I can't reliably reproduce this in space.

• RemoteTech
• KerbalAlarmClock
• Kerbal Engineer Redux
• Better Engine Lighting
• EVSE
• RealPlume
• Scatterer
• SmokeScreen
• ModuleManager

Unfortunately, I do not have a Player.log to attach, but I will try to replicate the error. In the meantime, I will post the save/craft files and KSP.log.

To reproduce: EVA one of the Kerbals in the Hitchhiker capsule while in low orbit of Mun

Be good to get a confirmation of this on an unmodded install using bewings repro steps

Confirmed

Windows 10 Pro
Steam version 1.1.3 Unmodded
Game save didnt work. went to black screen and never went to launch pad
Used supernuke2.craft and loaded it in VAB then used launch.

Launched straight up into space with SAS on.
Stage the rockets until theres just the nuclear engine left...made sure im past 70000m
eva...press B and valentina stays outside the ship.

I also experience this bug, originally reported here http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/147248-kerbals-duplicating-on-eva-return/

It happens regularly for me when I send up a small probe to recover low Kerbin orbit kerbals.

Sometimes when a kerbal goes on EVA and tries to return to the vessel, I get control of the ship but the kerbal seems to stay outside the vessel and I cannot select them. They effectively die. It's really annoying I just hope I have a savegame that I can manually backup at that point then restart.

It is too erratic to be able to reliably reproduce, so I haven't been able to minimise my plugin set. My full list of plugins is (and latest versions in CKAN):

"name": "ModuleManager" 
            "name": "FerramAerospaceResearch" 
            "name": "ModularFlightIntegrator" 
            "name": "RemoteTech" 
            "name": "KerbalEngineerRedux" 
            "name": "SVE-Sunflare" 
            "name": "SVE-HighResolution" 
            "name": "Chatterer" 
            "name": "SCANsat"

I've attached the logs of what happens for the entire EVA and there are two exceptions, but I cannot see which module is causing the problem.

This was addressed and fixed for KSP 1.2

Closing as this was fixed in 1.2.0
