Failentin
Because it worked with the loading section before the Egypt slide without potion
Simaf
The torch does not consumes during the slide because you control Obelix... so I don't see why you say it "works"... maybe I don't see at all what you are talking about actually ^^
Failentin
Well no, I don't mean the slide in Normandy, there it's obvious. I just remember that somewhere in Egypt, I think it was in the loading tunnel before the slide, I brought an almost depleted torch into the tunnel and once the new sector was loaded, it didn't run out anymore. Which proves that infinite torches don't necessarily need a potion to work
Simaf
Ohwww
Simaf
That's interesting...
Simaf
So you mean : if we save the torch at the end of the wind cave by using the last firespot, and going back on the previous tunnel with the torch and then going back, that could potentially work ... ?
Failentin
No, as I said, I tried and unfortunately it didn't work for some reason 😅
Failentin
It seems only a few loading tunnels can give that effect
Simaf
oh ok sorry, I didn't see that part ^^
Simaf
That seems weird though... I'll still try it at some point. I have some ideas to test
Failentin
what the- I just had the weird character switch in Normandy that SidFx had in one of his runs
Failentin
you know, before the Vikings fight, the switch to Asterix only happened at the end of the tunnel
Failentin
unfortunately i wasn't recording :/
Simaf
If I understand what you say, this is the same thing that happens when you go backwards with Asterix to get an early passive lock, isn't it ?
Failentin
yep
yarnfang
That does sound very weird...
yarnfang
I can't remember ever having that happen :/c
Failentin
yeah, it's the first time for me as well
Simaf
Failentin, did you try to abuse the loading zone with the torch ?
Failentin
Which one?
