What this mod does
Jump Button does exactly what its name says: it adds a button to BeamNG.drive that makes your vehicle jump at any moment, no ramps needed. It works with a wide variety of land vehicles, although the author jokingly points out that most modern cars aren’t designed to jump.
What’s included
- A jump action, bound to the U key by default.
- A UI app to adjust the jump force, in other words, the height.
- A setting for the cooldown between one jump and the next.
How to use it
Add the Jump Button app to your UI to change the settings and check the key under Options, Controls, in the Jump Button (mod) section. Then just press it. The effect applies to the player’s whole vehicle, so any parts that have come off go flying too. Some players are asking for a way to remove the jump smoke.
What it’s for
It’s perfect for goofing around, dodging crashes or creating your own challenges. Several users use it in BeamMP to avoid hits from other players, and one jokes that the game looks more and more like soccer with cars.
Compatibility
The latest version is from April 2025 and doesn’t specify a game version. Reviews from 2026 are still positive, but it’s worth testing it in 0.40.
