Changing player movement acceleration and deceleration

[breadstick]

Hey (first post). I'm looking to modify the acceleration values for my future TTT server. I want the movement to feel snappier, so I want to decrease the time it takes to speed up/slow down when you use/release your movement keys.

My assumption is that this is specified in the base lua files somewhere, but I can't find it. Would I have to create a custom script to modify this?

Any help with this is much appreciated <3

You should be able to modify that with server values which are already available through the console.

sv_friction
sv_accelerate
sv_airaccelerate

However, if you can't get exactly the desired behaviour, then the function you're likely looking for is [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/GM/Move]GM:Move[/url]

You want this to be in a shared file. I don't know if TTT already uses this function somewhere.

[url=https://ghostbin.com/paste/apgdo]Here's some sample code[/url] you can reference from a gamemode I made a while ago, where I completely overwrote the movement. (Major props to the Quake 3 Arena gamemode for that Accelerate function - I used to not understand how to do this sort of stuff, but I learned a lot from that addon!) I'm not a very good coder, so forgive me if there's anything sub-optimal or poorly written - it should help you understand the gist.

You should be able to fine tune the movement here, but you will want to set air acceleration and ground acceleration + friction to 0 first.

Oh cheers, those sv commands were exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks for the code too, I'll have a look through and maybe learn a few things from it &#128077;
