Fall Roll

Timed Jump while falling to soften fall damage — skill expression, not immunity.

Feels vanilla: uses your Jump bind, the dodge-roll animation, and existing stamina. No new keys, sounds, or assets.

Behavior

Situation	Result
Falling, press Jump in time, impact in range, enough stamina	Landing roll + partial damage reduction
Bad timing / too soft / too hard / no stamina / Feather Fall	Vanilla fall damage

Uses peak downward velocity (not fall height), so it stays compatible with gravity / movement mods.

Timing (Jump → impact)

• Perfect 0–90 ms → 40% reduction
• Good 91–200 ms → 25%
• Late 201–320 ms → 15%
• Later → no roll

Stamina (by impact speed)

• 6–14 m/s → 15
• 14–18 → 20
• 18–22 → 25
• 22–28 → 30

Does not stack with Feather Fall / soft-fall effects.
