hi all i am building a mech and i have the walking cycle dawn but it can only goes up a small hill so i put 2 rockets on the legs and naw it can go almost any hill but what i dont like about rockets is the smoke and the sound they make so i was wondering if theres any bug to delete the sound and the smoke the rockets produce 30553

Well, as for the sound, the only way i know of removing it is to turn the rocket's boost to Zero,the smoke on the ither hand... i have no idea but, i have made mechs in the past and i always find that haveing the smoke adds a much needed mechanical feeling to it

Do you not like the sound they make once they're already on or the sound of rockets coming on? If it's the latter what you could do is connect a magnetic key switch (set to speed) to the rocket. Have a magnetic key, connected to a piston, positioned at the very outer edge of the switch's radius just so the rocket is on but with close to no power. Use the same switch you used to turn the rockets on but connect it to the piston and make it directional. The piston will move the key to the center of the switch's radius giving the rocket maximun power, elimination the sound rockets make when they turn on. As for smoke you could make the rocket really tiny, using the emitter glitch if you have to, and hide the rocket in the body. This will not eliminate the smoke but the smoke will be so small you won't see it because the body hides it.

What I did on my walkers is to include an on/off for the rockets as part of the walk cycle. Im not sure how you have yours set up to walk but it could be done as simply as push button on the bottom of the foot or if you have some kind of timing wheel for the walk cycle just put in an extra trigor on that for the rockets.

What about using emmiters instead of rockets? You can have an emmiter with a high velocity that emits tiny pieces of invisible metal at the mech. It would push the mech just like rockets.
