To use a Techguns glider, the primary action is holding the sneak key while you are in midair.
Once equipped, the glider becomes active when you fall or jump from a height. Instead of falling directly, holding down the sneak key allows you to deploy the glider and enter a gliding state.
Gliding Mechanism & Benefits
The Techguns glider provides several key advantages in your gameplay:
- Activation: Simply jump or step off a ledge and immediately hold down the sneak key.
- Safe Descent: One of the main benefits is the ability to land safely from any height without taking fall damage. This makes navigating vertical terrain much less hazardous.
- Rapid Travel: The glider is highly effective for covering large horizontal distances quickly. It maintains a high speed while gliding, making it an excellent tool for traversing landscapes or getting across large gaps.
- Speed Control: You have some control over your glide. By facing downwards, you will generally increase your horizontal speed and descend faster. By facing upwards, you can often slow your descent and potentially extend your glide distance, though this may decrease horizontal speed.
Key Actions Summarized
Action | Result | Benefit/Effect |
---|---|---|
Equip Glider | Allows gliding capability | Prepare for aerial movement |
Be in Midair | Prerequisite for activation | Must be falling or jumping |
Hold Sneak Key | Activates Glide Mode | Deploy the glider and start gliding |
Face Downwards | Alters Glide Angle/Speed | Generally increases speed, faster descent |
Face Upwards | Alters Glide Angle/Speed | Generally decreases descent, extends glide |
Utilizing the sneak key in midair is the fundamental technique for engaging the Techguns glider and leveraging its capabilities for safe descent and fast travel.
