having the same issue with Quantum jump and jetpack not working with Forge 4.1.4.275

I'm pretty sure the forge version has nothing to do with it really, I think its more to do with ic2 itself.
Then again I could be wrong and this all could be a problem with player hooks in forge for multiplayer.
But I don't see changing the forge version helping much, other than its good to have the latest version.
Speaking of latest versions It may be worth noting that I redownloaded ic2 1.106 and found that the file size of the ic2 jar had grown from 7,333kb to 7,342kb since the day of release and there's no version number change at all.
So yeah look out for those ninja updates

While playing full SMP, no one can fly using electric jetpacks, op'ed or not. Energy is drained when you jump, but you fall down, and the sound bug spam shows in the client:
example:

the above video displays exactly how it acts on my setup as well.

Interesting I just thought it was a migrated bug.

Have you tried to enable flying in the server properties? Maybe it helps on the Jetpack issue.

all that does is prevent people from being kicked for flying

Every single one already on the bug/to fix/already_fixed list, then you ask why devs complains about repeated bug reporting.

after much searching I was unable to find such a list.
have you got a link?

Jet Packs Don't Work - It seems that both jet packs in SMP act like there was not jetpack even there accept it still drains the energy or fuel depending on the jetpack. But there seems to be 0 effect accept for hovering mode downwards only. (Slow Fall)

This is simply fixed by oping the the player who wants to use he jetpack. This happened on 1.2.5 aswell and was as far as i can tell a feature. This becomes a problem however in lan/smp as it is impossible to op other players even through the cheats console with cheats enabled.
If you are server admin and you op yourself then it will work or if you host a lan it will work for you.
If you op other players on a server it will work for them.
It will not work for guests on lan/smp

This is my thread on the matter
[Bug][1.106]Jetpacks don't work for other players in lan/smp

Quote from RichardG

How do they not work?

They drain power when the player jumps and the modes can be switched but the player is unable to fly with them they just jump instead.
They work fine for everybody in their single player, they just don't work for people who join a lan server (guests).

Quite simple really the jetpack only works for op'd players so it works for me and not my friends.
I tried oping ithem but even with cheats enabled I got the unknown command message.
Seems oping is not allowed in lan games.

I tried allowing flight for him by editing his player.dat but when he logs in it resets to 0 and I'm one step shy of decompiling ic2 and fixing it then recompiling it.

This has made one of my friends demotivated and has stopped playing. He even stoped making the phase blade because he is adamant it wont work for him even though I know it will he wont listen (I know he's being a baby)
I on the other hand have little interest in the jetpack but I want to play with my friends.

Edit: I am aware it asn issue with non op'd players as I had this issue on a server in 1.2.5 but that was an easy fix "/op <playername>"
