Sorry if this is already common knowledge.

Soldier takes 40% less self-damage when he is in the air as opposed to when he is on the ground. This is irrespective of if his rocket hits a player or the soldier has gunboats equipped. This means when fighting point-blank as a soldier, make sure you jump before shooting a rocket (for example, flanking granary second point through Z).

June 19, 2008 Patch (Pyro update): Removed Soldier's 40% damage reduction from his own rockets. Does not affect rocket jumps

thanks to twiikuu and leth for bringing this up in the plugin discord

I wasn't aware of this cheers :o

since soldier can control how much self damage he takes, then perhaps it is not needed to alter self dmg through plugins?
