Curious, did mantreads at some point get nerfed in their effectiveness to make you rocketjump higher? I've been using them as of late and they don't seem to be giving me that extra boost like they claim to for FF2.
Not sure if they have been nerfed or if it's a current bug.

This one's a bug. I was actually in the process of fixing it as you made this post. They should be working as expected by next map change.

Ah, alright. Thanks for the response.

Okay it looks like my previous fix was a little too naive and it broke a few rocket launchers in the process.
The root issue here is that the FF2 and VSH plugins applied an item attribute to the mantreads that gave them a damage force boost for rocket jumping. Unfortunately it looks like Valve has stopped this attribute from working on non-active weapons.
What I'm going to be doing is moving this effect from the mantreads over to the rocket jumper. The rocket jumper will now just be a reskinned regular launcher that allows you to rocket jump further than the others.

Is it the jumper model that has normal stock stats, cause if so it would look so bad ass just killing people with the jumper

Can it just be jumper model that has normal stock stats, cause if so it would look so bad ass just killing people with the jumper
Only thing about that is that the Rocket Jumper has no kill icon (I think), so killing someone might crash the server. I think just leaving it as a reskin would be better.

Aw

Wait wouldn't is use the skull and cross bones icon
-
It's a rocket jumper model with the stats of a regular rocket launcher (plus the rocket jumping boost). In testing it didn't crash the client nor the server, so I don't think that's a thing that happens.

Time to wait for my PC part and I will be ready for this

My reaction of when I fix my PC and get back in ff2 to see did rocket jumpers
-
Replace stock rocket model with jumper and make a fake tutorial/video about killing people with the rocket jumper then say it was patched immediately after no one can do it.

If someone does it but put it on April fools for next year it would be funny as hell
