faster flying vehicle via- console command

[kyjus25]

Ive asked as many people as i can think of. I know that...

-->(car)Vehicle.maxWheelSpeed = #;

but what is the command to make a flying vehicle go faster? ive tried everything from velocity, to thrust!
is there any command? Im sure there is but... fooly, or heph couldn't tell me D: so im beginning to wonder!

I'm on a iPod right now, so I can't check, but look in a flying vehicle script and you should find a variable for it's speed.

Pretty nice how you just made up a DTS file.
Oh wait, you started this topic...

WheelVehicleData(name)

You want to use the name.



name.maxForwardVel
name.maxReverseVel

name.reverseThrust
name.forwardThrust



Velocity is speed, and thrust is acceleration

maxwheelspeed is for wheeled vehicles...

[Wedge]

There is a cap on speed because idiots were making stuff that would fly through everything and crash the game.

[Kalphiter]

The cap on a wheeled vehicle is 150, any faster and you randomly loose a wheel or wheels, and then the vehicle gets stuck.

[kyjus25]

so...  the answer would be
--> (helicopter)Vehicle.maxForwardVelocity = 9000;?

[Kalphiter]

Why do you keep putting (helpicopter)

[heedicalking]

Why do you keep putting (helpicopter)

Maybe he set that as one of his parts of the script, though i doubt it.

[kyjus25]

Why do you keep putting (helpicopter)

you guys arn't getting my point i don't think. Ok, you know about the console, correct? the little box that pops up when you say ~?
well I am trying to get a flying vehicle to faster by using a console command. The .cs script was to perhaps help you figure out what the correct console command was in order for it to go faster...
I used helicopter because, it is a flying vehicle. I could have used magic carpet, minijet, etc.
My point is- to get a LAND vehicle to go faster, it requires a different console command than a flying vehicle. Thats why I am aware of the fact that "speed" only makes wheels go faster, not the velocity of an airplane.

see mah point?

[Kalphiter]

HyperjetVehicle.maxForwardVel = ?;

[kyjus25]

HyperjetVehicle.maxForwardVel = ?;

Thank you kal, thats the responce i wanted. Thanks a bunch
