Force jump not working?

[Simon Appleton]

Just finished KOTOR2 as a Jedi Guardian 15/Weapon Master 12 and was surprised that I never did a force jump, except once in one of the last battles (against a Sith heavy trooper). Any clue what happened here? I was jumping all the time in Kotor1. I wielded a light saber as soon as I got one and wore the the green apprentice robes most of the time.

You either

 

- Was too close to jump

- Or chose to use a special feat (ex. Power Attack) instead of just attack.

OK - maybe I was overkeen on flurry then. Thanks for the quick reply.

not sure about this, i've played kotor fine as a guardian, i'm having these troubles also.

 

i'm not to close, not selecting a special attack, nobody inbetween myself and the target, and yet still no force jumps. in 3 hours of gameplay.

 

is this a bug?

It only works if you have a lightsaber equipped.

Another thing is that you need a free and clear path to your target. Doorways can be problematic, and also gaps in the floor, wall protrusions, pot shards and gizka turds.

Yep you need your lightsaber(s) equipped, a clear path to your enemy (no obstructions whatsoever) and a fair amount of distance between you & the target. You MUST use regular attack as well to initiate the force jump (special attacks will only cause you to run towards your target as opposed to jumping them). That should solve your problems!

force jump was only activated when i double-clicked my enemy ... just "normal attack" wasn't working ...
