Jump pack

Jump pack

A single-person burst rocket for short-ranged flight. With its integrated harness and guidance assistant, the jump pack allows anyone to leap long distances at high speed, even over obstacles. It must be recharged after several uses.
Some spacer tech militaries have melee combat specialists who use jump packs to bypass obstacles and rapidly close with the enemy.

The jump pack is an accessory added by Royalty DLC that allows its user to make rapid rocket powered jumps to a tile within range and in line of sight.

Acquisition

As a complicated piece of technology, jump packs can only be made at the Machining table and requires Jump Packs to be researched in order to be constructed. Crafting the armor requires Plasteel 30 plasteel, Chemfuel 20 chemfuel and Component 2 components.

Alternatively, this item can be received as a quest reward.

Analysis

The jump pack allows the user to make up to 5 jumps before needing to be refueled, at a cost of Chemfuel 20 chemfuel per charge. The user can jump anywhere within line of sight, so they can jump over Rock chunks but not Walls. Keep in mind it occupies the utility slot, and thus cannot be worn with a shield belt or other utility item. Consider using the Locust armor if you wish to have both jump capability and another utility item.

It is currently unknown if pawns can be shot while jumping, and if lower quality packs are actually faster than other methods of increase movement rates, such as Archotech legs.

The distance the user can jump is dependent on the quality of the jump pack.
