Couple distance questions
« on: January 11, 2006, 09:31:30 AM »
I managed to find the player height and normal jump height by searching, but I couldn't find anything on jump distances.  Anyone know what the max horizontal jump distance, and a typical jump distance that requires a good but not quite perfect strafe jump are, from both a straight running start and at bunnyhop speeds?

It really depends on how fast the player is moving.  Bunny hops can build up speeds in excess of 70mph, so obviously you can jump further than jumping from a still position.  Also, it depends on the player's packet rate, z-axis position, gravity, and other things as well.  It's not an exact science.  Trial and error is usually the best way to determine these things.  Just build a couple ledges and see if you can jump from one to the other.

Figured that might be the case, but I wanted to ask before I spent a bunch of time experimenting.  Thanks :)
