[TF2] Needle Jump
 

Needle Jump

Description:
This plugin brings back the Needle Jump to Team Fortress 2.

ConVars:

• sm_needlejump_version: The plugin version
• sm_needlejump (1): If plugin is enabled (0 - off, 1 - on):
• sm_needlejump_speed (200): Speed to add to target player
• sm_needlejump_friendly_only (1): Activeonly forfrinds

To Do:

• Make it more "realistic" to the original version
• Horizontal movement

Thanks to skatelouis for the idea!

Changelog:

• Version 0.3 ( 22/09/08 )
  • Added horizontal speed.
  • Speed limited to 400.
• Version 0.2 ( 20/09/08 )
  • Now, supports SM 1.0
• Version 0.1 ( 16/09/08 )
  
  • Initial Release

Notes:
In this first version, it only affects the vertical speed. I haven't played the TF2 with the orignal versionof Needle Jumping, so, I don't know details about it, but I found some information on the Web.
Please, if you think I should change anything, tell me please.
And if you have a suggestion to the horizontal speed, tell me please =]

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Since it's using TF2_CalcIsAttackCritical, you need a 1.1.0 build, I think?

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Yes, you need the last 1.1 snpashot, because it uses the TF2_CalcIsAttackCritical

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

sorry to ask , but possible to make it work for 1.0.4?

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

I'll made a version that works on 1.04; In a few days, it'll be here =]

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

So, this brings back the needle jump "exploit"?
does it work on all classes or only engineer?

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

It work for all class but the plugin isn't finish, it's only the beginning.

I dont get enough time to test it, I will try it tomorrow maybe.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

omg thank you soo much ive been waiting ever since they took it out

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Updated!
Now, working on 1.0

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

I am trying to learn some advanced programming techniques in Source Mod, I will give you the parameters, the commands but you will need to code it yourself because I dont know how to code.

But I will do the search:)


The things we need to search are all about collision and solid. You are using TeleportEntity in your plugins, I think it's why it dont work.

I have an idea :
1) Why not build a new command like +fjump that will allow any class to go in front of them for something like 10 units when they are hurt by the friendly needle?. And with a limit of 5 seconds between each +fjump.

I will continue to search about solid and all these things, but I think it can be a good improvement for the moment.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

I think it's not possible to check if a needlecollide with a friend and FF can't be enable for only one weapon.. =/

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

With your plugin you are using TeleportEntity, I think you can enable something that will do that :

if TeleportEntity(iTarget, NULL_VECTOR, NULL_VECTOR, fVelocity);
Player can use +fjump

if not TeleportEntity(iTarget, NULL_VECTOR, NULL_VECTOR, fVelocity);
Player can't use +fjump


If you dont know how to make it, I will try to work on this tonight.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

hmm how far are you on the horizontal movement? just wondering
but its still great even if it just goes up wards

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Tested with 1.0.4
Works like a charm. Thank you so much.
I now request that it be possible with the rocket launcher. :)
I have rapid fire on so i'f you'd like to see what it looks like you can try my server.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

I will do it, it's really easy.

Edit, its done, say me if it's working. I am at school so I can't test it.

I exchange the Blutsauger for the Rocket Launcher. I dont think it will be really nice, maybe only for your Rapid Server.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Nice,
But what i meant was making the soldier also shoot rockets upwards and have someone jump on top of the rockets. Same like needle gun effect, but for soldier.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Did you tried it?

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Added horizontal speed.
Speed limited to 400.

(I couldn't test it in a open server, sorry if it has bugs)

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

This version is much better, I find it really nice.

I think you dont have to change nothing for the moment, maybe only the default sm_needlejump_speed (200)
I will do some tests to see what is the most reallistic one. Because 200 is too low


It will be really nice to put a tag like : Needle Jump
It will be easier to find server with Needle Jump install

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

needle jump works great. I do wish you could also push them a little forward though. They only go straight up and sometimes I want them to go forward also.
I want to catapult them into the enemy.
LOL

I just realized you made it horizontal. I will try it out later.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Hey thanks it works grate!!!!
Its an Awsome Plugin
Very funny idea xD
very nice

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Tomorrow ill add this to my server and tell you the results :)

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

The needle jump works..and the rocket jump works also.
sm 1.1

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

a video would be nice:)

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

i couldnt get it to work at all so i took it off ;(

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Hi, I'm a bit confused on how this is supposed to work, as the only needlejump experience I have is from TF2Ware. To needlejump with this plugin, do I jump and shoot the ground, or am I supposed to shoot players?

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Well the plugin is from 2008, so it could well be "ruined" ..

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

The funny thing is is that the console doesn't report any errors with it enabled. I was really hoping to be able to needle jump like in TF2Ware. Oh well!

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

You can always ask the author of tf2ware to take a look at this plugin, perhaps he can help out.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Yeah, 2014 checking in. Still doesn't work.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Ok took me some time but i got it working been using it on my server and no crash or errors so it should be good to go. :grrr: have fun :)

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Works just fine, thanks.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

why sm_needlejump_speed is not working ?

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

when i fix it i didnt add it back in.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

yup, doesn't work. Most likely a tf2 update screwed it up. It would be nice if this plugin could either get updated or unapproved.

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

can someone please fix this plug in

Re: [TF2] Needle Jump
 

Works fine
