Will you allow EVA speeds above 10 to 15 meters per second? In the ISC, we saw someone flying past Jericho going super fast and decoupled.

Currently, we can even have this speed if you use grapple hook mode along with the thruster pack. So if you use the grapple hook and drag yourself, it will be exactly 10 meters per second. So yeah, you got it.

But not quite the 15.

Gennady · Senior Gameplay Programmer

Not 15, but yeah, middle ground.

Chris Parry · Systems Designer

And that's to say, these are the speeds we think are fun, the speeds that we enjoy. We're playing it right now, but you guys haven't had them, right? So you'll obviously be able to give us feedback and say if you're enjoying them and if you need to go a little bit faster maybe, but it's what we think works well, and we're in development still.

So just to be clear, you're saying the 10 meters per second now. We were talking about the 36 meters per second before, that was jumping out of a vehicle.

Kian · Lead Gameplay Programmer

Yeah, around 36, I think, is the overall cap for an actor's movement in the game at the moment.

Jared Huckaby · Host, Community

So 36 is the cap jumping out of a fast-moving vehicle until you eventually slow down. And then just you on your own with a grappling hook, you can potentially get up to 10.

Chris Parry · Systems Designer

And just to clarify, when I'm saying grappling hook, we're talking about the tractor beam. There's no physical ice hooks. Not yet. For 3.23, it's just the tractor beam.
