Charged Jump
it's-a me
This mod solves 2 things that makes me crazy in vintage story:
1. Climbing mountains
2. Sneak jumping not being a thing.
So now just hold jump while sneaking to charge your jump!

You can charge a jump sprinting, just hold space:

You won't jump as high as a sneak charged jump, but you'll go farther!
You can set the max charge and charge rate of the charged jump in the config file.
The animation is tied to charge rate to give you a clue to when the jump is fully charged!

There's a funny albeit possibly unintended movement technique involving the running jump and coming to a stop suddenly.
Run, charge up a long jump, stop running and jump automatically in place, then release jump in mid-air for a sort of hybrid long/tall jump.
I think it's pretty funny. It feels great to have so much more mobility.
Hey Salty. I don't use SPACE for jump. And whenever I attempt to remap it, it stays as SPACE.
Deanmalus
What exactly you need to remap? 🤔
Can you not remap charged jump? I'm a lefty and its not allowing me to change it to something more appropriate. :(
PapitoPapz
Need to load world once!
Am I crazy or I do not see the config for disable sprint jump ?
hey salty, i know it's not how this mod works but would it be possible in the tiniest fracture of a way to make this mod class dependent? For example if I want to add an explorer and only he can do this? I don't konw anything about code so I'm asking this solely because I want to do this so I need to know. thank you very much.
You can do some insane stuff with the new charged jump. The amount of forward acceleration you gain even with just a tap-jump can really get you far, especially if you combine it with vaulting, dashing and diving.
Is there a way to disable the sprint-jump functionality or at least require it to hold jump instead of triggering on a tap as well?
Edit for version 1.2.2 - The latest fixes and additions are perfect. <3
nacnud
yes, tapping space while running still triggers the animation!
I am charge jumping without holding space, just a single tap, I am also using the latest version of your Sprint momentum mod.
badtigra
Yes I will be doing that!
Would it be possible to add a config option to disable sprint jumping?

I'm fighting this battle too, but earlier today I did a charged sprint jump to catching ledge over a cliff that was absolute cinema! It pays off!
charged jump sprinting is so useful but man is it gonna take some getting used to lol
Not seeing a config anywhere, is it supposed to be in the ModConfigs folder like normal?
Another thing: would it be possible to have the settings be applied server-side, to apply to all players? I limited the max jump height to 2 block (I think 3 blocks is a bit OP if used together with your Catch Ledge mod), but it doesn't seem to apply to people joining my server.
Great mod! A suggestion: the maximum jump height could scale with movement speed speed reduction caused by wearing armour. E.g. you shouldn't be able to jump up three blocks whilst wearing full plate armor.

I second this. If there was also a charged horizontal jump say when holding ctrl space w, I would use this mod. Imagine the leaps across a ravine with this feature in combination with your new catch a ledge mod!
i think it would be more useful if the charged jump would be more horizontal than vertical.
Sadly Charged Jump doesnt comsume stamina when used... Could we count on patch or should we forget it?
SaltyWater
Is it possible to add a hold time config for the jump? Or the sound of a jump being ready? It's not always clear when you can already jump. :)
This might not be reasonable doable, but it would be neat if this could be a class attribute, or have the height configurable by class attribute, so that a mod that adds different races as classes could use it. Like normal Seraphim could crouch jump up 2 but a cat like race could jump 3.
Aside from that, does the crouch jump affect hunger more than a regular jump. I believe jumping uses more than just walking
LarekFlynn 1.0.3 should fix your problem just fine.
LarekFlynn Oh sorry, I completely forgot about that. lemme..
SaltyWater is the key configurable now with this version?
cool idea, but you can double jump right now by swapping ctrl and shift. maybe tie the held key to the crouch bind so that people can't do that lol
LarekFlynn Sure! I'll just finish another mod i'm working on then I'll set it to a configurable key in game.
Any chance to be able to configure the key or have it match the sneak button? I have Shift and Ctrl swapped so its harder to use and sprinting occationally gives me Double Jump lol
Jena_Thornwyrd That's it I'm including the yahoo sound effect from Mario 🤣
Now we need 2 more mods 🤣:
I'm kidding, but this is actually a very nice QoL mod thanks !
OmegaHaxors a sound clue maybe?
You should tap into that variable that makes the player glow after death to have the player flash when they're fully charged.
EDIT: Actually it might be a better idea to see if there's a variable that changes entity color, less chance at cave cheese.
