Symptom
Player crashes into the ocean at high speed and receives "Kerbin Splashdown" credit.
Root Cause
MissionTracker.cs:615-617 triggers splashdown on Vessel.Situations.SPLASHED with no speed check:
if (data.to == Vessel.Situations.SPLASHED && body == "Kerbin" && !v.isEVA)
ReportLocation("Kerbin Splashdown", grantScience: true);KSP transitions to SPLASHED even during a destructive water impact. A 327 m/s ocean hit fires both SPLASHED (awarding splashdown) and onCrashSplashdown (awarding first crash) simultaneously.
Fix
Add a speed threshold to the splashdown check. KSP's survivable water landing speed is roughly 6 m/s for most pods. Check v.srfSpeed or v.verticalSpeed against a reasonable threshold (e.g., < 10 m/s) before awarding splashdown.
Alternatively, skip the splashdown award if onCrashSplashdown fires in the same frame for the same vessel.
