Plug-in Request

<div class="IPBDescription">Jet falling damage fix</div> I am not sure if this has been suggested. (I performed a search but I could not find)

There are some servers runing jet pack nerf plug-in so that jetpackers can not fly infinitely.
This plug-in is good for aliens. But marine players seems to have complaint because they have to die sometimes from falling damage.

My suggestion is to reduce falling damage of jetpackers when we use jet pack nerf.

Maybe there are some cvars such as "jet_falldamage XX". When XX is set to 50, jetpackers takes 50% damage of normal falling damage.

Is this possible?

    I made a plugin that removes the fall damage for the lerk. But I think reducing damage would be a bit harder than removing it.

    What I really want is reducing fall damage of jet packers.

    Or setting fall damage at a certain point like "jet_falldamage 10". This cvar sets fall damage at 10 no matter how high place they fall from.

    But if it is hard to code such plug-ins, removing fall damage could be a second choice (only jet packers of course).

    Yeah finally I think I know how to do that... I may consider doing it later...

    Try
    mp_falldamage 0
    but also check if you have no double entry for that in server.cfg (happened me).

    I tried mp_falldamage 0 and I found all players(both marines and aliens except skulk) take only 10 fall damage on this setting.

    I did not die when I fell down to the ground on ns_missilecommand.

    If we are satisfied with this, there's no need to make a plug-in.

    But there must be people who think soldiers who dont wear jetpack should take full damage.

    Gorge/Fade/Onos shuold do also. "Lerk dont take fall damage" is good (already done by FireStorm).
