* '''Running speed''' depends on your class: 5 m/s base, plus 0.5 m/s per pick point (see [[Classes]]). Some items change it: the [[Pet Rock]] (80%), carrying the [[Sniper Rifle]] (50%, and 50% again while scoped) and a spinning [[Minigun]] (down to 50%).

== Knockback and explosive jumping ==
Explosions push everyone they hit, including you. The [[Rocket Launcher]], [[Grenade Launcher]] and [[Telekineater]] can launch you to high ground at the cost of some health (see [[Damage#Self-damage|self-damage]]). While an enemy's knockback has you in the air you keep only half your air control until you land, so you cannot simply walk against the push. The [[Basher Tentacle]]'s bash takes your air control away entirely for half a second.

== Out-of-bounds surfaces ==
Maps can mark surfaces as not walkable to keep players out of places they should not stand. Standing on one counts as standing on a slope too steep to walk: you cannot jump from it, you can only drift with air control, and if it slopes you slide off.
