ZSZ Free Vertibird Jump (BETA). File: zsz_vertibird_jump_beta.esp
MAJOR NEW UPDATE Promoted from VBJ Alpha3 V77/PS97
Beta Notes:
You can fly in any direction, change course whenever you want, go into a hover, land wherever you want, and then keep going. You can jump out in mid air from a hover anywhere. You can mix this directional control with normal (VFT) Vertibird Fast Travel.
New features this version:
- Fixing wide slow wrong-way turns (if this happens, save - restart - reload).
- Better protection against stuck missions
- Better info feedback
- Option to call both types of Vertibirds in Far Harbor
Enable options under ZSZ_Config in a Chem station. (The first option you might want is ‘Enable Vertibird Travel’). Craft items under ZSZ_Items in a Chem Station. Craft Vertibird Jump Grenades and throw them to start Jump missions.
Craft control rings or control ‘grenades’ to command directions, hover, landing. (Grenades are for if you are in Power Armour). Enter a hover to jump out. Fall damage is your responsibility. (Use PA or Fast Ropes.)
Once airborne, after a new command, use an UpdatePackage item to update to the new package. I suggest you hotkey this AID item.
Use the special ReleaseMission ring/grenade to end the mission. Or just dismount/jump out. Check the Holotape to see if the mission has released. If not, equip a KillMission item.
Experiment with different hotkey layouts. Or, if you don’t like time pressure, all commands can be issued inside the PipBoy menus, with time frozen.
When mixing VFT control with directional control, bear in mind that VFT overrides directional control. Once you land at your VFT destination, directional control will resume.
It is not recommended to mix the use of control rings and control grenades - you can end up confusing yourself. If you are in PA leave the control rings at home. If you are not in PA, leave the control grenades at home.
The mod should be safe against quest failure now. If not, you will have to uninstall the mod, save and then restore, then (if you want) reinstall the mod.
If the turns are slow and wide, turning the wrong way, you may need to stop and restart the game.
