Hi all.
The jetpack in B24 is horribly underpowered. I can hardly move while carrying one of the larger weapons.
Is there any way to fix this? A console command or mod or something? Its pretty damn frustrating as it is.

Anyway, thanks in advance!

That's the point. You can't use it when you have a lot of heavy weapons. It's not underpowered, it's more overpowered than underpowered. It's not broken, so it does not need a fix.

Actually, they were nerfed a lot more than was needed, so they are probably getting a buff at some point.

To actually answer the question: There is no really easy way, you have to go through and find all the jetpack definitions and increase the mass or amount of particles emitted by it. I believe it is defined in base.rte/effects/pyro/pyro.ini, but I could be mistaken.

I never said I was carrying a lot of heavy weapons. Im carrying one heavy weapon, nothing else, and the jetpack hardly gets me anywhere.




Oh okay, sounds like a lot of work but I'll give it a try. Thanks.

Didn't they get rid of that in B24, though, Nonsequitarian?

The jetpacks will be stronger in the next version of Cortex Command. In the meantime, you can place this file in your Cortex Command folder under Base.rte/Effects/Pyro and let it replace the current Pyro.ini:

Unless there's a change before B25, that's what jetpacks will be like in the next version.

Ooooooh, jetpackfix!
