Equipment[edit | edit source]
As mentioned before, Blade Runners increase the Engineer's running speed, jumping height and dampen fall damage.
| Regular | Blade Runners | |
|---|---|---|
| Running speed | 8.89 m/s 32 km/h |
13.33 m/s 48 km/h |
| Jump height | 2 m | 3 m |
| Maximum fall without taking damage | 16 m* | 20.5 m* |
*Note: Fall damage test has to be redone because in Patch 0.3.1.0 fall damage was made "more linear", which may affect breaking points stated above.
Blade Runners used to cap the maximum fall damage at 96 health points or 9.6 health segments. Without the Blade Runners, the fall damage is capped at 97 instead.
It is advised to obtain this equipment as soon as possible. The engineer will then be able to jump onto a 
Storage Container or 
Conveyor Splitter/Merger, which makes factory building much easier. Additionally, running speed is increased by 50%.

Current issues[edit | edit source]
- If the FOV (Field of View) is changed from 90, the engineer's legs will appear out of the Blade Runners. The bigger the difference of FOV, the more visible it is.
- Blade Runners don't align with the engineer when traveling in a Hyper Tube.
Gallery[edit | edit source]
Fall damage comparison between wearing Blade Runners vs not. Around the 50 meters mark, wearing Blade Runners actually causes higher fall damage.
