[Suggestion] Allow Rocket Jumping

[windows3.1]

We already know that rocket jumping isn't realistic. If you're caught in the blast zone, you die. End of story. However, we also know that Shootmania isn't going to be realistic.

I admit that rocket jumping, at least in TF2, has become second nature to me and I habitually try to do it in other FPS games as well, usually ending up as a smear of blood on the map. I may be a little biased. Still, I find that competitive (Quake, Doom and Wolfinstine) style FPS games usually benefit from it as it allows for a skilled player to sacrifice some health for increased mobility.

Yes, it may break some maps, but I see a possibility for other maps to be made in a way where they can't be cleared without rocket jumping.

This is, of course, assuming there will be a rocket launcher or equivalent in the game already. If not then never mind.

I think your can't rocket jump yourself, but you can rocket jump your mates and enemies.

Ok thanks for the link Hylis, better have a small one than none at all.

Is it besause you don't realy have a life value but a number of time to be shoot by the enemy ? I mean allowing a big rocket jump should cause you health, and seeing how the health is managed in SM it would cause too much damages.

I don't know if you already explained that, sorry to put that question if it's the case.
