    "Gordon can teleport through walls by pushing on an object between himself and a wall, since he is technically a boat." -Sentences that don't make sense.

      Fun one, slightly inaccurate though.
      When Gordon enters any vehicle, one of his hitboxes - specifically the havok hitbox- is removed. When you leave the vehicle, that hitbox is re-added to the player.
      However, since the airboat is deleted while Gordon is in it, (precise glitch), the havok hitbox is never re-added. Therefore, he is still technically inside the boat, as far as the game is aware. Hence the phrase "he is technically a boat".

      Alok1905 As I understand it, source engine games (half life, portal, etc.) define inbounds as anything within the map box. So when they were flying around during the firsts skip, even though they were out of where the game intended, they never left the map and were still technically inbounds.

    20:00 This bug he's talking aobut with you being invunerable to damage and enemies capable of standing inside you but you can't move (because you can collide with them, but they can't collide with you) problem is very similar to a death bug in tremulous where you can let your health drop below zero and then raise it back above zero to flag yourself as dead. Corpses in tremulous have a boundry box, however unlike quake 3 arena (tremulous runds on ioquake3) other entities can pass through it. The corpse only retains the bounding box so it doesn't fall through tiny gaps in floors i assume.

    • @MrOmegatronic
      @MrOmegatronic 4 роки тому

      Not _entirely_ similar, the game still sees Gordon as alive. It's just that he's inside an imaginary boat, and the game doesn't understand that mime isn't real life, so it doesn't realise he should still be hurtable.
      (By which I mean, the hitbox that lets him be damaged is removed when he gets in a vehicle, and re-added when he gets out. So, if Gordon gets in but _the vehicle_ gets out, Gordon never gets that hitbox back, and thus can't be hit by attacks.)
