Are we supposed to be able to jump while carrying a body? (How about rope climbing?)

 

Load up a save of carrying a body, can jump on desk. Put the body down, pick the body up, can't jump on desk.

 

At first I thought it had something to do with what was in my hands before grabbing the body, but made no difference. Reload, can jump on desk as long as haven't put the body down first.

 

The wiki says you can't mantle while body carrying, but the jump section doesn't mention anything. (The rope section is nonexistent, but I couldn't find a way to make a wiki account or log in.)

 

(I couldn't find a way to search the bug tracker, a forum search of "body jump" didn't turn much of anything up that I saw, so sorry if this isn't noteworthy.)

I don't think you're supposed to be able to jump while carrying a body. Nice find.

Bug find objective complete, check! Heh...

 

Hmm, I finished one quest by jumping with a body through a window. Now you tell me I exploited a bug, unknowingly? Damn! :D

 

I'd bet the same mission I discovered it on! ;-) Having maintained the save, I did go back and complete it another way, much rougher though... However it IS possible to go the way we did without jumping with the body (featured in a Youtube vid on it).

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?
