If you want him to take more damage but still look pretty, you could increase the GibWoundLimit and create null wounds. Null wounds are easy go into base/ effects/ wounds and copy some wound into your own ini and replace all wound sprites with Base.rte/null.bmp and set all damage to 0

Well that's it more or less. But if you wanted to go the other route and have bullets bounce off.
Base/ materials and copy one of the materials, paste it in a new ini rename it and set StructuralIntegrity to about 150-180, then replace the materials in your actor with your new costume one.

Be sure to add a include file path in your actors ini or it wont load right. (or at all)
Geti might come along and correct me on some of this but to the best of my knowledge this is right, but he really knows his stuff and I would take any advice he gives you.

War machine anyone? :D

Why not just apply "visible no force" emitters on the limbs but keep the standard backpack, only "invisible with force"?

Nonfuctional limb jets, functional but invisible torso jetpack?

Or another idea, a toggleable "mode" or "weapon" that keeps the limbs at a downward angle like you're warming up the jets before taking off

Ok first of all if you made it emitters, you would have no way of knowing when to have them on or off without a bunch of Lua, and since the emitter is an attachable, it may not even will not work.

It could. It would just require stuff that's quite difficult.

hey, i would like all the mk's. such as mk.1 and mk.2 also.

mk.1 would be the weakest but reflex all bullets and isent coverd all the way with armore and a flame thoughter.


mk.2 would have no reflexofness but would be the strongest of the 3 and wouldent fly long.

mk. 3 is allready made and is the middle with refexofness (but not much) very good flying and middle strengeth.

That wouldn't work at all, the reason the jetpack is on the main body is because that part of the actor doesn't get thrown around and rotated constantly.
The foot moves when you are jetpacking through the air, and if it was on the feet, then it would be flying in random ass patterns all over the place, much like an out of control flying actor if you know what I mean.

Apply no force on the feet and use Lua to change the actor's velocity.


I would seriously love an actor with foot jetpacks, if only to try it out and have some laughs. No visual tricks, actual jetpack feet.

This. Many epic moments would come from such a mod

Yeah I think I was close to rocket boots on the Heavy Dummy, but in theory they won't let you fly without being incredibly unstable.

Maybe a script could help the actor balance out in flight.

or you could do it the real Iron man way, with flight stabalizers as a HDfirearm/HeldDevice or something like that( I think)

That's the entire point. Manual stabilisers. I think Lua-assisted stabilisation to at least a small degree will be necessary.

Main problem: even if you could get the jetpack on both feet, the legs tend to curl up, in a very not ironmanish way.
