Awhile ago I posted a thread asking for help in creating a midair mod. I got very helpful responses and was able to create a semi-functional script thanks to the help of the replies.

After messing around with the script for a while, I began to see an important issue. If the player being shot at is any distance from the ground, even only 1cm, the player will still be instagibbed. What I need to do is create a minimum height for the rocket to do damage but I don't know how.

This script is very messy and poorly written because it is my first pawn script and I have no prior experience in any similar languages. Most of it is copied from scripts posted on this forum so thank you to the original authors. It also relies on the edited soldier ctx file which makes rockets do 250 damage, among other things.

Also, if there is any way to increase the force of rockets other then the secret console commands that would be great. Currently, the force seems to be maxed out via the console commands and I am just wondering if I could increase the force via other means.

You can check a player's height by tracing a ray straight down and seeing where it hits to get a height. It'd work for most cases, I'd guess. Look at TR_TraceRayEx or TR_TraceRayFilterEx.

Yup, use a traceray and check the length of the ray and then do something if its less or greater than that amount.

How is this plugin coming along? Are you planning on releasing it to the public?

I've found a midair mod server and it's really fun, but it's based in Milano, Italy which makes it extremely difficult to play on count of my 150+ ping.
I'm not looking to start up a midair mod server or anything, but rather having the mod on our vanilla tf2 server for those late nights when we don't have enough people on for a regular game.
