Jumping out of Flying Ship Possible?

Post by darthvatrayen »

Hello, I was just wondering if it is possible to edit a ship's ODF or something in the LUA that would make it possible to exit out of it while still in flight. I am a Star Wars Battlefront 1 veteran, and you could jump out of a ship while in flight. (Infact, it was fun to get a bunch of buddies, all be jet troopers, get an LAAT and all jump out at the same time over a CIS cp. :lol: ) In the SWBF2 Conversion Pack 2.0 in "classic mode" you could not jump out of a flying vehical. :runaway: Please let me know if it is possible. Thank you very much in advanced. :bowdown:

I remember this topic being discussed numerous times ever since the game was released, if memory serves me right, it is hard-coded.

-_- is right
this has been discussed several times, the only idea was a fusioncuttere that slices yourself out of the vehicle but i think it wasnt practicable..

Just curiously, what happens if you head into a teleport region while in a ship? Is the entire ship teleported, or only you?

It depends on the code you use. You can tell it to do either.

So yes, you can 'jump' out of a ship by teleporting to your ship or dying and force spawning at the ship's location. I don't think anyone has actually done it, but it works fine in theory. There might be a small issue of being killed if you end up teleporting into the vehicle object, thus colliding with it.

So on dispensing of a weapon, teleport yourself to your ship's matrix. Or maybe a point offset from that matrix, so you don't run yourself over.

Then you can use it for wall hacking.

Never said it was perfect. It's a sloppy workaround, not the solution.
