Okay, I just started a Hoth map that has a hangar and many tunnels inside the terrain. Whenever I jump, I instantly die (though at one spot i think my health bar is seen going down rather rapidly). This is including when I'm out in the open, but I'm also on the same altitude throughout my level. I have NO idea what this is, but hopefully it's fixable. Any thoughts?

Last time I encountered this I discovered that the ground is too high. You just have to lower the entire plane if possible. What is your average terrain height?

go into the lua file and change the min/max hight, usally its set to 30, make it 100 or something, if that doesn't work, you might have a death region in your map. (just a region thats named deathregion)

Thanks! Now when I jump, instead of dying, it's a short jump (like gravity is stronger). Where are all of the height controls, in the g_con Etc. files or what? My terrain is high, and I don't want to bring it down any unless I have to.

Need to raise the skycap more, then. The short jump is related to the player's head hitting the skycap. (or really close to it)

This is what you need to change in the ABCg_con.lua type files:
SetMaxFlyHeight(30)
SetMaxPlayerFlyHeight (30)

change to something like:
SetMaxFlyHeight(100)
SetMaxPlayerFlyHeight (100)

This will raise the roof of the map, so you are not hitting it every time you jump.

Thanks guys! There's only one more thing that's angering me now - the mod tools app is only helpful if you can select different command posts! If it's in the green area, I can't select it! Is there any way besides clicking to select one?

Anyone? It kinda defeats the whole purpose of the tool.

Eh? I don't get the question.

Test your map with the retail version of SWBF2. It doesn't have a green box.
