Advanced Technique: Prone Cancel

Prone Cancel
Ahh... Finally we get to the prone cancel, the move that ties every movement in Soldat together.
What prone cancel does is it reduces the time it takes for your player to get out of prone.
Literally, you are cancelling out of prone instantly, which allows you to skip the time-wasting animation of standing up.

Unproning                                                         Prone-Cancelling
 
There are three ways which one can prone cancel:
Punching/Stabbing

Nade Cancel                                                       Forward Cancel
 
The least commonly used pc out of these three in the context of running is the forward prone cancel, it is harder to get consistant and you won't get it as instant and fast as the other style of prone cancels.
Yet the forward prone cancel is very useful when in combat as it allows you to keep your mouse steady while performing it. It is therefore especially beneficial with automatic weapons and for dodging while in air.
While you can prone cancel using punch or stab, if you're using a weapon, our suggestion is to nade cancel.


Inverse Prone Cancel
Inverse prone cancel is performed by bringing the mouse forward immediately after the prone cancel and before the next jump.
It is the same idea as the inverse cannon ball. Taking advantage of soldat collision pohysics for a small increase in momentum due to jumping from a landing facing forward rather than facing backward.
 
Backward Superman
It is sometimes beneficial to use the superman as a means of slowing down.


Cannonball----------CHAIN--------->Superman
Combining the two fastest movements in the game results in the fastest combination in the game.
Once again, best used when cannonballing off a ramp into a superman prone cancel.
 

Prone Gliding
Prone gliding is a movement that lets your player slide around on the ground in prone position using jet.
Prone gliding is triggered by holding nade or switch weapon button, left or right key, and prone button at the same time while jetting. An alternative method is to hold the jet, punch, and prone keys all together.
If you tap the switch weapon key or nade key repeatedly while doing this, you may go faster depending on the rhythm.

Advanced Techniques: Spas Boosting

Spas BoostingThe spas boost is a great way to speed up your gostek while running. Each shot from a spas boosts your gostek and adds momentum going to the opposite direction of which the shot was fired.

Advanced Techniques: Miscellaneous

Poly CatchingPoly catching is when you catch (with a kickjump) the corners of polies with enough momentum to jump off of the corner to increase your player's velocity as well as speed.
Extremely hard to master but one of the most helpful techniques in Soldat.
 
It's also possible to catch corner polies on the way down with a roll or cannonball.
 
You can get a poly boost by barely hitting the corner of a poly (skimming past it) This generally works better with obtuse polies along a flat horizontal plane.
 

You can grab many poly corners. Be creative!

Wall Climbing
Some walls can be grabbed as well.



 

ParachutesParachutes automatically activate in maps where the spawn point is well above the ground. Parachutes cannot be summoned. Parachute movement is controlled left and right with left and right movement keys. Remember you are still falling while wearing a parachute, and you can disengage parachute at any time by pressing the jet key.
 

Instant Prone
Performed by taping the nade key before the prone animation ends. Requires you to be in contact with the ground.

Instant-Prone                                      Regular Prone

*Instant-Prone is broken since 1.6.4. Mantis Ticket: http://bugs.soldat.pl/view.php?id=426

As de Espada:
the sidejumps need a reference point. either use texture or color
there should be at least one example of ice slide without prone cancel
missing: nade boosting and m79 boosting

really nice work!
