it seems that one some games i can shootthe rope stright and on others at only 45 degrees, is there a way i can choose weather i can or not in the scheme

Hey, actually the position or your rope shot depends of the position of your worm, and the position or your last shot, if u had one @ 45° the next shot will still be @ 45° but in the opposite side.. hard to explain actually XD

Just add more power to the ninja rope by putting stars in the weapon editor.

I think that he means rope in elite

Man, the power of the rope is different depending the kind of scheme you play

By example, in RRs and Ropers, the rope has its maximal power so you can shoot anywhere you want, unlimited.

In Team17s you have only 1 rope but the power is exactly the same as rrs and ropers

More over, in Elites, the power of the rope is only middle, which mean you are allowed to shoot only twice with the rope, with a beginning angle of 45 deg and the distance is also decreased.

Like Free said: when you play some random games you may change the power by adding stars to the rope.

But if you choose to join a game named with a specific scheme in ag, you must respect the rules/weaps power

I believe this is the info you want.

Rope:
power 1 = 1 shot, max length 294 pixels, initial angle restricted to 45° from straight up
power 2 = 2 shots, max length 336 pixels, initial angle restricted to 45° from straight up
power 3 = 2 shots, max length 378 pixels, initial angle restricted to 90° from straight up
power 4 = 3 shots, max length 420 pixels, initial angle restricted to 90° from straight up
power 5 = unlimited, max length 462 pixels, initial angle restricted to 90° from straight up
WWP super rope = unlimited, max length 840 pixels, initial angle restricted to 162° from straight up, 1/3 roping friction compared to normal

power 4 = 4 shots -.-
