How much is speed a factor in the EVA transition to gravity? Are you more likely to face-plant?asked by Carga98531

So there is a reaction time you get when you're coming in, and again, this isn't 3.23 because we're not attaching, but when you come in to attach to a surface, part of what informs you that's going to happen is, at the moment at least, your hands rise up. But we haven't done it based on distance, we've done it based on time to hit. So if you're coming in really fast, the amount of time you get to press the input in response to that to attach is roughly the same as if you're coming in really slow. So yes, it does have an impact, but we're trying to mitigate it by having more time to react. So if you press the button at the right time, you'll attach. And then for the manner in which you attach, what we want at least is that a different animation plays. So you might actually lose control for a little bit longer than you would, because the animation you're playing is really selling the fact that you've just impacted the surface. Versus if you're going slower, you'll get control back a lot faster, and the animation will be a lot shorter.
