So, I was building a Raptoran warblade (lv. 4) and decided to grab Sudden Leap as one of her maneuvers. For those unfamiliar with the maneuver, it basically grants me a jump move as a swift action, and since I'm a raptoran and maxed the jump skill I have +22 in jump on a swift action and then I take my 30 feet. Well, here's the thing, since jumping further than your movement speed normally means you jump for multiple rounds, what does that mean for swift action? Do I just complete the jump or does the jump interfere with my movement? For example, if I roll an 18 or above on my jump and jump 40 feet, do I jump the 40 and get to move, or do I jump 40 and then burn ten of my normal movement, or what?

Wrong forum. It's initiated as a swift action, but seeing as the duration is instantaneous, I would say the movement is the instantaneous part.
