It's really annoying that when u fall u get damaged not by a number but by % for example u have 1000 health and jump off wf, u have like 600.. or when u jump of wf with a low grav scale (jump slow) u still get damaged.

I wouldn't try falling for 5 seconds... Without aerodynamic drag you'll have a speed of 180 km/h when you hit the ground...
But no, it's all intended and not bugged so we won't touch it. If you want it changed you should make a mod or modded map or something.

Why is it intended to lose health based on percent and not on falling hight?
EDIT: an example...
I jumped down wf on a flying map.
soldier (100) lost 18 =18%
patch (200) lost 36 = 18%
havoc (250) lost 44= 17,6% (maybe jumped a tad higher)
So why is it intended to lose more health from the same free fall just because I have a heavier character?

It would take like 30secs to change it. Not any quicker to do it like that.
As for the falling damage..IMO, it's fine the way it is. If it was changed, you could (for example) wallhop the canyon windows very easily with advanced chars, so it does definitely change gameplay.

well trained people (havoc) would survive a higher fall then a not trained person (regular soldier)
you could also add a limit so that a havoc wont survive ridiculously high falls
edit: when you are already hit by a bullet you also have less chance of surviving a fall, with this the % amount doesn't make any sense 
unless i'm getting it wrong and it does #% based on the max health, not on the health your char has

There's a lot wrong with the current method, but it was probably done to make suer soldiers fall to death from distance > a and soldiers don't get hurt if distance < b. Any distance between a and b is scaled. I can think of many possible reasons why they could have done it that way, it doesn't really matter though because the current way is not really broken; it works just fine, even though it's not really realistic. I see no reason to change it.

Another interesting thing involving falling damage and teleporters. If you have a teleporter at say z = 10 and you jump into it and it puts you at say z = -20, the game thinks you fell that whole way and will kill you.

Oh come on guys, slow down and think about it, let say I jump off a building and die, you know, splatter on the pavement, you actually think that someone else could jump off the build and walk away from it perfectly fine (excluding Chuck Norris). Percentage makes sense because it keeps everyone on a level playing field, that way if you being chased when you jump off a cliff with a solider with 100 health and the other guy has 200, you don't end up with 10 heath and he is left with 110.

Yeah, I'd like to see that get fixed. It's really annoying for mods, but for normal ren, it doesn't exactly affect it. Therefore, certainly not a priority.

What I'd love to see done is the ability to have seperate walk speeds for every character. As it is right now, walk speed for every soldier in your mod/map is controlled by changing the 'general' settings in LevelEdit, and the soldier's walk speed is only determined by slowing down their running speed with whatever number you use in 'general'. That's retarded.
