Increasing Movement Speed Ingame

For anyone who has ever played the KotOR era in BF2, you might've heard of a Force power called Burst of Speed. This power increases your movement speed for a short period of time. I was wondering if this was possible in BF1, and if so, what lines would I add in the .odf?

Any help is much appreciated.

in my experience you can change the maximum speed of the units but you cant make a "Burst of Speed"!
look at these lines in the odf:

Code: Select all

Acceleraton 		= 70.0
MaxSpeed 		= 6.5
MaxStrafeSpeed 		= 4.5
MaxTurnSpeed 		= 4.0
change "maxspeed" but you are not able to change it as you want!
i think the maximum is 8.5 but i am not sure... just try it out ;)
if you make a number that is bigger then 8.5 the unit will be faster but the legs of the unit wont move!

I already know how to change the maximum speed of a unit.... what I want to know is if I can use a weapon of some sort to temporarily increase your max speed in the middle of a game.

No Lua scripting was used for that, but I don't think SWBF1 has the right ordnance/weapon type to make this work anyhow.

Hmmm. That stinks. If only SWBF1 had sprint :P

Oh well, I guess I can live without it. Thanks for the help anyway.
