What are the conditions for a crate to be a tardis crate? It needs to be partially inside a wall?
hesopesomeso
Yeah, or close enough at least.
pegperegogaucho
Does there need to be another ground above the position where you clip into the wall?
pegperegogaucho
Because that is also the case in Greece
hesopesomeso
Yeah, the crate itself is a ground + the one above the crate needs to be another ground. Then, you go from the ground above (some ground) to the ground below (crate). Now you are "in between" the ground above & on the crate ground. I believe this to be crucial (the in between state) for a tardis to teleport, as grounds that are tall don't teleport.
pegperegogaucho
The crate is actually a DynamicGround, and I believe this part is very important as well
pegperegogaucho
Have you gotten to this part yet in your project?
overfloyd
I'll check it out tomorrow afternoon, I think
hesopesomeso
Yes, but a dynamic ground is a ground.
hesopesomeso
Essentially, a tardis is possible, because the dynamic ground is dynamic; its content is generated based on the node. So, when you break a crate in a tardis position, you're waiting for the dynamic ground to change its content (which happens in the crate hook code) [and this is some other crate within view distance]. The reason you need to be stuck in a ground wall is for the game to consider the trio to be below it - and it thinks it's actually a ceiling: and the ceiling code uses the PREVIOUS ground (which was the crate) and puts you on it. Otherwise the game would consider the player above ground, and it would never use the crate ground again.

Thoughts on camera position? It might be difficult to see all the details further away on a small youtube thumbnail

It should be "Final Rome" now :Obelul:
adrientd
With the previous thumbnail you could see the Romans, who do indicate that Beta Rome is now playable.
adrientd
But not sure if it is possible to show some Romans in Sector 1 thumbnail?
adrientd
But maybe having a subtitle "Done", "Completed" could be enough.

You could zoom background a lil, or make a little different ss

Historical moment indeed
mr.rubinshtein
@pegperegogaucho will you be able to document tge whole journey on the wiki as well when you have time? I believe such thing would be really good to write down.
pegperegogaucho
The journey is all on this server :)
