    Okay so I noticed Electric Jetpacks from IC2 have a height limit and I wanted to know if the ModPack Team could extend the height limit. I live in a Craig Biome and I can't get to the very top where my farm is using the IC2 jetpack. If you can that would be very nice. Thanks.

    I do not believe the height limit is moddable in IC2, the gravisuit is supposed to be the second tier of that and has less restrictions. You may want to try the Pathonius Inc propulsion packs, as they have no height limit.

    What's not to like? rechargable in inventory, no height limit, and multiple tiers so you can upgrade as you go. Other than particles and the previously mentioned features they are quite literally no different from the IC2 electric jetpacks.

    Fall damage. No one likes fall damage. We would rather wear Nano then rubber boots.

    Meh, the no fall damage was something added to ic2 by the MPT, maybe they will add it to the Pathonius Inc. set too.

    Toni doesn't want it added; the reason being that IC2 pack were buggy in the past and in order to alleviate that SK made it so you don't take fall damage. However, that has since been fixed so if you use hover mode you don't take fall damage.

    So there ya go, a trade off I guess, no fall damage, or no height limit, your choice =P

    Personally, I think that the additions made to the electric jet pack back in 1.2 when the jet pack was buggy should be removed so that it is in keeping with other mods. There is no logical way that a switched off jet pack will stop you from dying after dropping like a rock out of the sky.
