- also annoyed that i had to export and upload this video twice because my editing software is stupid and dumb and insists on making everything exactly five minutes long lemme paste the old description
if you can't tell, i'm fairly new to stuff like srb2. apologies if the whole replay thing is due to some kind of technical limitation or something, i sure as hell don't know how the doom engine works and making a game is hard at the best of times, but it frustrated me enough that i had to put my thoughts somewhere. i wanted to watch that replay and see what even actually happened there, i literally went from first place to doomed to explode in the span of like two seconds. i'm not mad about launch pad zone being buggy or anything, i'm just mad i couldn't show my friends.
this video is so real tbh there were far too many times when i got gloriously destroyed at the finish line and couldnt save a replay
also apparently the spinny things are bugged sometimes and can just send you into infinity and beyond when it feels like it, if i had to guess its to do with bot rubberbanding messing with bots which can cause them to get launched away, i never saw it happen to a human player so idk if it can affect only bots
Not sure what happened. Fleskhjerta has a 2nd Ring Racers montage where a (perhaps) similar bug happened.
[Also, I love that the follower says "RUN" in Sinistar's voice]
just started watching that video when i realized i got a comment lmao, glad to see someone got footage of this happening at least. i've heard launch base zone is one of the buggiest maps in the game, so i'm not super surprised other people have gotten weird results from bumping into people in the spinny antigravity sections. bit of a shame it wasn't as dramatic as what happened with me, would've been extremely funny to just see everyone explode again.
going frame by frame, seems like what triggered the "not allowed to finish the race" bug was that collision in the elevator causing flesk to stay in the elevator for longer than intended. i think what made my instance of the bug bad enough to apparently vaporize bean was that literally the ENTIRE race got into that single elevator shortly after i collided with second place (with an orbinaut around me, which definitely didn't help), meaning everyone just started ping ponging off each other and making the problem exponentially worse until the entire elevator just kinda exploded. i'm not at all familiar with srb2 or the doom engine so i might be completely wrong about how this works, but if i had to take a guess i'd say the reason the finish line bug happens is because when things get weird in the elevator, your ACTUAL vertical position gets desynced from the vertical position the game THINKS you're at, so when you try to cross the finish line the game registers you as being way too far up to hit the trigger zone to finish the race. programming is weird.
and yeah i love that follower, being able to honk at other racers with the sinistar "RUN" sound just never gets old for me. manegg's another favorite of mine, i love how many follower horns just let you say random things.
@@somepersoniguess4945 sinistar is based
It would probably be easier to just find another person instead of hoping the ai does the exact same thing
yeah, but part of the reason things went so dramatically wrong here was because moments after second place and i bumped into each other in the elevator, the literal entire rest of the race poured into it behind us. if it were just one friend i needed to try and recreate this incident i could do that, but for the full effect i'd need seven total other players. i don't have seven friends who play this game and trying to organize things with strangers is stressful, especially when you're trying to do something that had such a tight timing window like this seems to have. do appreciate the advice though, maybe someday i'll join a discord server and try and recreate things with people in vc or something.
