About this mod

Restores the ability to slam horizontally and upwards when using the Slam ability.

Slam Upwards

This mod restores the ability to slam horizontally and upwards when using the Ground Slam ability. Aiming upwards was originally possible (!) in the main game, but this feature was removed when the Foundation DLC was released.

Without going into spoiler territory, the Foundation DLC involves several areas gated by vertical height, so the change was likely made to ensure that the player could not visit certain areas in the DLC earlier than intended.

However, horizontal slams were a great mobility tool for Jesse and it's a shame to lose the ability everywhere else in the Oldest House, so I've worked to restore this functionality. Just try to avoid using it in the Foundation to get to places you wouldn't otherwise be able to reach!

This mod requires the Control Plugin Loader.

Usage

Aim up, and slam!

Slamming horizontally is a fast way to cover ground in the Oldest House. Aiming upwards can also get you to places that are hard-to-reach.
Accidentally step off a ledge in the Firebreak? Slam your way back up instead of slowly floating downwards to certain doom.

Installation

1. Install the prerequisite: Control Plugin Loader.

2. Extract SlamUp.dll and SlamUp.ini into the following folder: <Control Installation Directory>\plugins. Create the plugins folder if it does not exist.

3. Launch the game.

Configuration (optional)

The maximum upwards angle from the horizontal that you can slam is set to match the original game's value: 15 degrees. However, since this is a mod, I've made the value configurable so that you can change the angle if you wish. This setting is stored in the SlamUp.ini configuration file.

No Launch and Slam Highlights - Allows you to disable the ground slam targeting circle if you find it distracting. Located under the "Optional Files" section of the Tweakables mod.

"AbilitySlam : Requires touching Ground to use again" - Tweakable setting - determines whether you need to touch ground before you can slam again. Set it to zero if you want to use Slam as long as you have sufficient energy to do so.
