im assuming im not the only one that knows about it but i will ask anyways. does anyone else know about jumping your mechs over longer distances than the jumpjets allow i,e large bodies of water.

you pause the game put a walk/run waypoint on the water close enough to the opposite shore so that the waypoint is within jumpjet range of land and then you put the jump waypoint on land. the ai will simply skip any waypoint that is in an untraversable area and will jumpjet the entire distance

Interesting, and I did not know.
I tried to do what you describe but it does not work

Its an old MC bug.

Select a unit, place a run waypoint then pause. Press ctrl and place jump waypoint, then another run waypoint, unpause and the mech will jump directly to the last waypoint at any distance.

Or something like that.

do you use this on the original MC2 or Omnitech?
