Apparently, an overview like this didn't exist yet...or at least I couldn't find it.

New page

This page contains a list of all JumpJet-related flags. Take note that Westwood's QA utterly failed at ensuring consistency, and that, as a result, it depends on each particular flag whether it is spelled "{{tt|Jump'''J'''et}}" or "{{tt|Jump'''j'''et}}".

==Global Defaults==
These are the global defaults under {{s|JumpjetControls|link}}.
{{f|TurnRate|4|link}}
{{f|Speed|14|link}}
{{f|Climb|5|link}}
{{f|CruiseHeight|500|link}} ; cruiseheight should be higher than a bridge, just to be safe
{{f|Acceleration|2|link}}
{{f|WobblesPerSecond|.15|link}}
{{f|WobbleDeviation|40|link}}

==Any given Unit==
These can be on any given unit; many of them are not required, as a common comment explains: ''params not defined use defaults (old globals way up top called Jumpjet controls)''.

{{f|JumpjetNoWobbles|yes|link}} ; the wobbling is in the Hover sequence of the art, instead of being programmer art/ sine wave ; Really small numbers on two lines above don't actually slow down the wobbling since it is the amplitude of a sinusoidal curve
{{f|TiltCrashJumpjet|yes|link}} ; can handle tilting while falling without freaking out

==Jumpjet Infantry==
The Jumpjet system was originally created for a trooper in {{ts}} that would walk small distances, and fly long ones (hence the name - it was a soldier who used a jet engine to jump long distances).<br>
YR's Rocketeer forewent that system in favor of staying in the air indefinitely.

Ease of conversion between systems depends on the direction:
*To convert the Rocketeer back to TS's system, all you really have to do is remove {{f|BalloonHover|yes|link}} and ensure {{f|HoverAttack|link}} is set to the best fit for your unit. You may want to adjust {{f|SpeedType|link}} and {{f|MovementRestrictedTo|link}} to account for the changed mobility.
*Since TS doesn't have {{f|BalloonHover}}, a change forward isn't quite as easy, but the TS editing community has [http://ppmsite.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=24525 proposed] several [http://www.tiberiumweb.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3153 ways].
