There's a jump i REALLY want to do properly on upward. It's close to the Red first spawn point. It begins at that fence where there's some ammo and small health. Basically i wanna get from there to Blu first spawn. I get the first jump from the fence and the two small boosts correctly, but the fourth jump where you slide over the small slope on the left side, there is just stop dead, i have no idea what i'm doing wrong, so yeah. Need some help.
If you didn't get what i'm talking about, watch this at 1:14 for reference.

Try aiming straight down as to have the rocket explode behind you to give more forward push. Alternately you could probably speedshot, but that may not be worth the health, and you'll likely go much further than he does in the video.

I NEVER get the timing right for the last rocket, I have done this properly with the speedshot maybe once in 30-40+ tries... and also the speedshot works for me in the third rocket perfectly. But on the fourth one, i always mess up the timing . Same with the straight down.

Same with the straight down. That may be the problem. The third isn't a speedshot, he never touches, he just uses it to keep himself off the ground. As far as I can tell, none of them were, but the 4th is likely replaceable with one, and you could probably strafe to anywhere around that open area with one.

I know he runs a bunch of plugins on his server. Maybe this is something that removes fall damage? I tried for about 10 minutes and was able to speedshot it consistently, but like you, couldn't quite get the normal shot.

Maggot Posts: 6	I highly doubt the no fall damage since i can hear the fall damage sound when he is high enough to take it. BUT, there COULD be some plugin to help with the jump. BUT, he does fail the same jump near the end of the video. SO, maybe that jump was a one in a million lucky one?
