Space Engineers: How to Modify the Character Speed with Mods

Modification of the “Character.sbc” file will allow you to modify all the walk/run/speed/climb parameters .
– You have to make a mod in other words –
Specials thanks to Junrall for the inspiration =)

 

Where is the file?

Into your computer :
-C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SpaceEngineers\Content\Data


Name?
-Characters.sbc

Now what?
-Copy the file

Where to paste the file?

Try to reach this location :
C:\Users\YOUR_NAME_BRUH\AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Mods

-Create a new folder named by yourself , go inside and create a new folder named “Data”

-Past the “Character.sbc” inside the “Data” folder

Ok , now what?

– Open the “Character.sbc” file with Notepad++ or BlocNote and start modification :

– The fun start at line 42 and end at line 58 , the others lines are not funny , until you find the jetpack parametters =D

What i modified inside?

<!– CHARACTER CONTROL –>
<UseOnlyWalking>false</UseOnlyWalking> Dont touch that

<MaxSlope>90</MaxSlope>
here i modified the angle of climb on a wall : now you are the goat-man and you climb on 90° wall =)

Touch the wall with your body and use the foward/backard/left/right control to climb the wall

<MaxSprintSpeed>30</MaxSprintSpeed>
here i modified the sprint speed , so now instead of 10m/s game settings , its 30 m/s…this is fast ^^

If you go faster than 30 m/s , its fun but useless and unefective : you bounce on the ground and lose all your speed because the ground is not “flat”.

-same business for the other lines … do what you want .

<MaxRunSpeed>10</MaxRunSpeed>
<MaxBackrunSpeed>6</MaxBackrunSpeed>
<MaxRunStrafingSpeed>6</MaxRunStrafingSpeed>

<MaxWalkSpeed>3</MaxWalkSpeed>
<MaxBackwalkSpeed>3</MaxBackwalkSpeed>
<MaxWalkStrafingSpeed>3</MaxWalkStrafingSpeed>

<MaxCrouchWalkSpeed>2</MaxCrouchWalkSpeed>
<MaxCrouchBackwalkSpeed>2</MaxCrouchBackwalkSpeed>
<MaxCrouchStrafingSpeed>2</MaxCrouchStrafingSpeed>

<JumpForce>2.5</JumpForce> Dont touch that

You say I modded the game actually?

-Yes

-Save your work , and dont forget to add a picture of your brand new mod into the folder that contain “Data”

Time to Play?
-Yes, or you can publish if you want … see ya =)
