afaik the 1000ups cap isnt real, it just gets harder and slower to gain speed after 1000ups you can in the right conditions go to almost 2000ups just with bhop ---

At 1000ups you drop objects, so you can’t fly faster than that or you lose the fly. ---

This is just an idea, but what about regrabbing the object the moment you drop it like on the Orange Box engine? It may be doable in real-time with a lot of complex scripting and / or some extra SPT functionality (in the future). ---

Technically you don’t drop it, it just can’t keep up and falls out of reach If you watch HL2DQ, and skip to coast\_12, you can see them start to lose the pallet ---

Yeah, I sort of thought of that. Though I guess you could fly faster and the very end if you no longer need the prop and just soar through the air the rest of the way XD ---

> [@Jukspa](#): > > Another map in coast that’s worth looking at is coast\_09. I’m not really familiar with how flying works but can’t you just fly over the water and skip going all the way around the map? I imagine it’s really hard but I don’t see why you couldn’t do it. Im pretty sure you can fly over the sea with enough speed/timing [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i\_5p7W4x6DM&index=1](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_5p7W4x6DM&index=1) In my example the granade doesnt even hit the sledge, at best you could fly to the moon.

Here are a couple of strats for the last part of d1\_trainstation\_02: [http://www.twitch.tv/michaelplayslive/c/5192696](http://www.twitch.tv/michaelplayslive/c/5192696) I did this in one segment without scripts because I can’t be bothered setting that stuff up (yet). It’s maybe possible to launch straight over the fence, and definitely possible to get much more speed from being whacked by the Combine guard. You can also get a lot of height from the guard if you are positioned correctly, so it might be possible to land right next to the door of the building without bunny hopping along the path at all. ---

Propflying over the entire section to the door works much better than waiting around for a guard to hit you. ---

The guard only takes a second or two to hit you, and you can get a pretty big boost (I didn’t). ---

In this run, every second counts, and after the guard hits you you lose most that speed going around the corner anyway, although the box boost you showed could work well.
