Post The wierdiest thing happend when I was playing.
I just finish ordering a rocket with a robot. I decided to crash it into the ground. So I did. When I was going to hit the ground I decided to take a screenshot. I hit the ground than there was like a whole lot of dirt everywhere and I was able to hear the one guy I accidentally hit make noises for like 5 seconds, really fast. I notice he was spinning extremely fast into the ground.

I got 2 screenshots.

All this happened in like 10 seconds.


Do you think this was wierd?

ok...

Something crazy with the physics. Did you mod the game at all?

On another note, I was testing a new top-secret technology when the missile I was flying crashed and exploded. And exploded. And exploded. And kept on exploding. It had -5000 health and kept bouncking around, blowing up miniature sections of the landscape until it fell off the bottom of the screen.

The project has since been scrapped.

that happened to me to once! i shot a guy with my modded long cannon, and he started spinning REALLY REALLY fast. he tore up a big chunk of the land. I think it's a glitch with the physics engine. If a guy starts spinning then it adds more friction and tears up more dirt. i dunno, that's just a guess

They just launch a lot of particles that destroy more terrain.

I think in your case, Codesta, taking a screenshot made the game glitch a tiny bit. Like, it calculated the impact a hundred times over or something. That's just a guess.

Actually, JLrep is probably right, the game freezes when you screenshot, sooo... maybe it keeps doing whatevers happening till it's done, on slower computers the result could be devestating.

lol that happend ti me too, but that i did is go super fast with the rocket that spin it and drop cargo, almoast same results

if you want to see a wierd bug
make a standart rocket (or use one in game) change mass to 1
ingame make time really slow by pressing 2
then rapidly click the right button 50 times untill the rocket spins like hell
and some moments after that it will show up like...(no screenies :( sorry)
well as i can explain it, the sprite will get deattached from the rocket
so the rocket moves but the sprite dosent
like if your rocket is upside down, the sprite will be in normal position but the legs and thrusters will be upside down, its really cool 8) :wink:

TRY IT AT HOME OR ELSE! :lol:

Mhh something like that happened to me one time too ...
I shot a robot with the longcannon blew his head of he started spinning one of his legs flew away - he was still spinning but was standing on his other leg on the ground(he wasn't moving just spinning incredible fast) and then the remaining leg flew away too and then he flew rotating through his bunkerwall in his brain and i won. That was funny xD
