Maybe it's a good idea!
Any dots in Strength affects jump height (es. sv_jump_boost "+5") and Potence raises strenght also giving automatic success in jumping ability transforming it in supernatural jump (es. sv_jump_boost "+25").

I can write the code to do it if you want!

Although I probably won't add this feature to the patch because of the game breaking problems, another comment. Have you noticed that the boost stays after you once use it? You need a way to reset it on ending Potence otherwise it even ends up in the config file!

It's not for the patch (unfortunately I know the game breaking problems) but for Houston810! For the other problem you can add this lines in stats.txt under "active_potence" as a first action:

Action
{
"Value" ">0"
"Effect" "Discipline (Potence-Jump)"
}

Then you add this lines in traiteffects000.txt in a new effect:

TraitEffectGroup
{
"InternalName" "Discipline (Potence-Jump)"
TraitEffect
{
"Trait" "sv_jump_boost"
"Modifier" "Value 25"
}

TraitEffect
{
"Trait" "sv_jump_boost_immediate"
"Modifier" "Value 0"
}
}

Or you can edit this in autoexec.cfg:
sv_jump_boost "25"
sv_jump_maxspeed "350.0"
sv_jump_boost_immediate "0"

Just out of curiosity, using this trick wouldn't the asian vampire jump higher as well?

Higher than you? Depends of your dots in Potence (=Value of jump_boost)
I don't know why he is able to jump so high! Certainly his jumping ability acts independently of yours".

Do you think it's a problem?

I would have guessed that setting a sv variable would make all characters on the server jump higher and the only one jumping a lot is the asian vampire.

Interensting! I hope not! I've never experienced this so far!

A siple question!

Does the claw and blade brothers have a supernatural jumping ability? what kind of discipline is that?

No idea, there is nothing in their stat files.
