<div class="IPBDescription">Jetpack nerf plugin, with a twist</div> I just made this small "Jetpack Mod" plugin which allows some more control over the jetpack. It also has another twist, which only allows the jetpack to be re-charged when the player is on the ground. Which makes the jetpack a little bit more tricky to use (Especially if your at a high up, you need to save your fuel so you dont fall like a rock and die from fall damage).

There is also tweaking for the fuel usage and re-charging rates, Again its about the same as JPN, cept you must be on the ground for re-charge.

There are 2 cvars:


nsa_jetpack_fuelrate = How fast the jetpack eats fuel, default 4.0
nsa_jetpack_chargerate = How fast the jetpack re-charges. default 2.0

I recomend that the fuelrate always be higher than charge rate, otherwise you get unlimited jetpack.

I was thinking of making a check for it "overheating" and when it would overheat it would explode and remove the jetpack from the player, but it just seems to evil <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

This plugin is released for linux and windows, I compiled the linux plugin and it seems too small, but try it (every plugin I compiled on the machine worked flawlessly).

Download, Windows & Linux + Source:

    Can you add a cvar to turn off the having to be on the ground to refuel? JPN crashes our server. :/
