Platform bug?
Posted By: goranDate: 6/8/04 3:36 p.m.

I've noticed a strange thing today when running one of my maps, I'll even go as far as calling it a bug. I was able to activate a door from an unusual long distance, maybe 3 Wu's away. I tried to recreate it in forge and noticed the polygon distance from the door always was two polygons, however it never matters how long they were.

This is what is required to set up the bug.

1. the platform you gonna activate must be checked as door and activated by players.

2. you must be above the door platform's floorheight

3. a maximum of 2 polygons must be between you and the platform

4. press action key and watch of the door gets activated

At first this looks like nothing, but make one of the 2 polygons very large/long and it's another thing. It looks somewhat stupid, but it could be in use for mapmakers to create cool effects. (I already got a lava pool idea)
