2 ideas.

1.changing jet thrusting power.

lets u toggle the boost that the jets give u.
-for example:
first u set the value into a box which is in the 'options' what boost power u want (default 100%) then u make a server.
u start the game and lets say u set the value to 500%
in the game u will have 5 times more jet power (so ur jets are faster 5x)
-server-side option
-a box where u change the value of the boost (100% is current)


2.falling down from very high (realistic only)

when ur falling and ur not using ur jets ur soldat starts to do an
animation where he is waving his hands up and screaming like this:
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!111 ..until he touches the ground.
-can be stopped any second by using ur jets (except if u dont have any)-this will start when the soldier has fallen over 10cm on the screen.

discuss ;)

Nah, it would be a pain in te ass if every server had a different kind of jet.

The falling animation would be cool, though

Lolz then there should be a "deploy parachute button" when falling xD.

what for? im talking about jetting and falling...

also i would like to add that it has a value limit of 1000% of jet boost power.
otherwise ppl could set 999999% of boost and when they want to jet they just fly thru the polys and into the border =/

i dont think it is possible for a server to have the option, and it would be so outragous anyway. very annoying if it ever happened for each different map.

i think i have fallen 10 cm about 2 times without using jets in all my time playing soldat.

both of these are totally unnecesary and not worth implementing.

no, it wouldnt happen to each map (unless u set it)
the jet boost will be set the same way as spawning.

The first suggestion is pretty good, and I kin od agree with it. But the second is pretty silly -_-

I guess the moldifiable booster power is ok, but really you should warn a player about the abnormal booster power when he enters the server.

We wouldn't want somebody taking one click of booster and flying like a jetplane do we? Now that's a true moment where people would scream:"ARGGGGhhhhh...WTF?!"

1.there will be a warning like in a realistic/survival/advance mode when u enter the server: Jet boost: 450%

2.thats why there will be a limit to 1000% and i dont see nothing wrong with soldats flying like some friggin concordes (soldat isnt that realisticu know ). xD
