THIS IS NOT A HACK it is going in a mod (maybe) when you fire the conc normally you are sent backwards but I would like to know how to change it so when you fire instead of being sent back horizontally you will be sent vertically so you could save yourself from big falls and stuff [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

it is gong to be a gunning/saber mod.

you could try this and see if its what you want. it works like a force jump.

Code:

//-Add these to the symbols section...
vector   upVel      local
vector   playerVel  local
vector   newVel     local

//-Add this to the fire section of the conc cog...
upVel = VectorSet(0.0, 0.0, 2.5);
playerVel = GetThingVel(player);
newVel = VectorAdd(upVel, playerVel);
DetachThing(player);
SetThingVel(player, newVel);

that will send the player up when he fires the conc riffle or whatever you are going to turn it into. if you think it sends the player too high just change the 2.5 in the upVel=VectorSet(0.0,0.0,2.5) to a lower number.
