Part 31

Jump Mechanics: Understand the difference between alt-hammer-jumps and ripper-jumps. Alt-hammer-jumps are preferable for height and jumps requiring less distance, losing 16 health at 0 degrees, 18 at 40 degrees, and 25 at 75 degrees. Ripper-jumps are better for distance and lose less health at higher angles: 37 health at 0 degrees, 27 at 40 degrees, and only 9 at 75 degrees. Use the alt-hammer-jump for angles closer to the floor and the ripper-jump for angles farthest from the floor. Ripper-jumps do not receive a boost from jump boots.

Feign Death: This allows you to lie down and appear dead. It does not work on computer bots or experienced online players. If you feign death while carrying the flag in CTF (Capture The Flag), you will drop the flag. You can be rocket-launched while feigning death, but you cannot use air control. Be cautious when carrying a UDamage or a shield-belt. Opponents' shots will still make noise upon impact, revealing you are not truly dead.

Suicide: Essential in online Assault and often useful in CTF. Use suicide to move more quickly around the map, allowing you to reposition based on objectives or defend your base. Each suicide costs one point, but points are not a concern for Assault players.

Walk: Hold a button to walk very slowly instead of running. This is useful for traversing narrow ledges or when you need to move quietly to set traps or spring ambushes in DM (Deathmatch) matches. Crawling serves a similar purpose while also lowering your profile and protecting you from headshots.

Walk-Jump: This bind is useful for jumping while wearing jump boots when you need a smaller jump than a standard one. It has less height than a normal jump but is better than nothing. This bind also functions as the 'walk' bind while the key is held down, with the half-jump occurring on release.

Mouse Speed: You can set up multiple mouse speed settings and change them on the fly. Bind one key to a slower setting (e.g., MouseX axis aMouseX speed=5.40, MouseY axis aMouseY speed=9.50 for DM) and another to a faster setting (e.g., MouseX axis aMouseX speed=8.00, MouseY axis aMouseY speed=9.50 for CTF). Different speeds can be applied to different weapons; for example, a fast speed for the flak cannon (MouseX axis aMouseX speed=8..50) and a slower, precise speed for the sniper rifle (MouseX axis aMouseX speed=5..50). Experiment with values to find your preferred speed for each weapon.

Mouse Freeze: This bind is useful for ripper-shots. It locks your aim in place, preventing accidental crosshair movement. You must have a separate bind to unfreeze your aim. This is only recommended if you are performing ripper-shots in online Assault. Example bind: set engine.input MouseX axis aMouseX speed=0.00 | set engine.input MouseY axis aMouseY speed=0.00.

Dodge Click Time: Adjust the speed at which you must double-tap a movement key to perform a dodge. Search for 'DodgeClickTime=' in your user.ini file. The default is 0.300000. A lower value, like 0.180000, requires quicker presses but reduces accidental dodges. Values over 1.0 have no further effect.
