I think everyone knows that robloxians kan jump their height 3 times today, making it unrealistic in some places. We can change someone's gravity, but it is not what we are looking for, therefor I suggest a property called JumpVelocity, a NumValue ( [-∞,+∞[ ) that depends the added velocity to the character when jumping.
Also, the falling from extreme heights doesn't do anything at all, if we could just adjust a FallDamage property, a NumValue(,[0,+∞[ with default 0 ) a lot of places could use it for increased realism.

| Can't you just script that? |

Really?
I've seen it done before at least 3 times. But still, I can only imagine how incredibly hard it is to script that.
That doesn't mean ROBLOX should add fall damage to every game. |

| Well, why not have a plugin that controls that? Or object. |

You can script them, but those scripts are always vague. They will never work exactly how you want them.
game.Workspace.Player.Humanoid.FallingDown:connect
and also
Humanoid.Jump(boolean) |

Yes, people will say can be scripted on this thread all over, and I would say it, but then I would be an idiot.
I think it would be nice. Just so that you didn't have to insert a script or anything. Just make a script like this (with the update of this idea of course)
and also, put it in the startergui
if true then do
script.Parent.Parent.Character.Humanoid.Jumpheight = 15 -- lets just say 10 is basic jump height, so 15 would be 150%.
end end |

There should be no damage done no matter what height you fall off of until you have changed that yourself. So if by default being 0 meant that no damage will be done from any height, then that is fine.
I do have a question about the fall damage though.
Would it work like ratios? I'll show an example.
Height (Studs):Damage
10:3 20:6 40:12 80:24 160:48 320:96 640:192
So let's say you fell from 13 studs. Around that area of studs is where you would lose 4 HP. So;
13:4
Hopefully you understand that. If that is how it works, then I am completely in agreement.
The JumpHeight is fine. No issues that I can think of. As long as the default stays as it is, at least.

Yeah something like
x² = 350y + 2500
where x= Velocity in studs/s and y=damage |

@unknown
Think about the size of the studs compared to the ROBLOXians. One stud is probably about one foot.
If you jump off something that is eight feet high, it will take you a few seconds for you to pull yourself back together. So, two health heals fast. That health it basically just you pulling yourself back together.
@SuperDenis
You could also use the 'y = mx + b' format.
y = damage done m = the slope (to separate the height fallen from the studs traveled) x = (beside the slope to show that it is the slope) b = the height you actually fell from (which is usually the y-intercept when graphing a line)
I just find that to be the most useful way. Probably because I have only a very slight understanding of what your equation was saying.

| You should download geogebra and input the equation, it is a great system imo. |

Yeah, even though it's scriptable it would be nice to have some simple properties. Then more people could use it. I support.

| Also some collision-sounds implention for the falling would be nice. |

Maybe when you Free-Fall [ Not by the Effect of a Brick, like Hoverbricks ] you should Turn Ragdoll, untill you fall and when you Stop Moving [ You are on the Ground Laying ] Your Character rises Himself. I support.

I support jump height, since it is not obvious to make characters jump higher, and I do not know how to make them not jump at all.
However I'm not so supportive about fall damage, some games require you to jump from ridiculous heights. However, maybe the falldamage would be a checkmark (default: false) that would indicate whether if to make a character take damage from falling (You still have a value to place to tell damage to height ratio, but if the falldamage is false, the numbers are meaningless). |

I agree with adjusting jump height, not sure about fall damage.
