Freefall Fix

This is a simple mod that fixes the Freefall (halo jump) animation when you place your character +100m above ground, even if there's a walkable object underneath.

It uses the AGLS height (height above ground + objects) instead of the AGL height (height above ground) for triggering the freefall pose.

Note that you can still get stuck in the freefall pose if the object does not have a walkable surface below the player. In technical terms, the object must have a roadway LOD and there must be a roadway surface below where you stand. Objects that you normally walk on, such as buildings, carriers, etc. typically have a valid roadway LOD so don't worry about those. You can check if an object has a roadway LOD like so (point at an object with your gun then run the code in debug console):


The minimum freefall height can be adjusted as well in CBA Addon Options (default is 100m, can be extended up to 1000m).

For performance reasons the mod only applies to the local player.
The mod adds one EachFrame event handler which should take less than 10us (microseconds) every frame (depending on your CPU performance it can be much less, e.g. ~4us on i7 8700k or 2-3us on 13700k). So it will have no significant effect on client performance.

Mod is client side. Key is included.

The script version is available in this GitHub repository[github.com]. Use this if you want it in your missions or you want no dependencies.

You are free to do whatever you want with this mod or its contents.
