You misunderstand me, Foa. The Portal gun was a joke, nothing more. Grif's teleporation is a hacky method IIRC that isn't TRUE teleportation.

Well, it moves an actor from one location to another.

I can't really do any of the effects or anything without Lua.

I remember there was this funny trooper and a gun that when you fired his weapon, he spawned at the muzzle offset of the gun and cleared the terrain around him.

Although this killed the old actor and made a new one, so... its not perfect teleportation. Maybe it can be explained that the teleportation heals the unit or something. : p

Can they go back through it, or is it one way?

...So without lua, it actually repositions the actor that fired it? And doesn't just gib the actor and replace it with another at different location?

I doubt this.

Unless it's an actor invincible to impacts and the device quickly makes insane reverse recoil followed by insane recoil, sending them flying then stopping them. That might work, but wouldn't technically be teleportation, and would rely on having a strong operator.

Think about this: if it just gibbed the actor, there would be a limit on the number of times it can be done.

And that's all I'm going to reveal until it's polished to completion. Which won't be for a while.

venn: it's teleportation, as in instantaneous transportation, not making a portal from one location to another.

The current system works as follows:

You are an actor with a specific weapon. This weapon moves you to a location a set number of pixels forward. You can repeat this process an infinite number of times.

That's going to be the most basic brand of teleportation in the mod. There will, however, be a number of more unique uses.

this will be very good, looking forward to it.

lol, I dont see any of you kids ripping Grif I knew one for trolling you hardcore.

I like the name as GRIF without meaning anything as I think it sums up your rather succinct and accurate nature of yourself.

You make this ♥♥♥♥, Grif, and you'll be ingfinitely more awesome than you are now, which is already an infinite amount of awesome. What.

Recoil somehow made into teleportation with coding awesomeness?

Also, i like interdementional robot things.

Last time I recoiled in the name of teleportation, I made a giant hole in my bunker's wall. It took a while to patch it.

my actor exploded the first time i did. then i made him near indestructible. similar thing to numgun's case happened. i suppose it would be a handy infiltration tool.

It moves you forwards.

It's also not recoil based.

Stop speculating, you'll see it when it comes out.

New bests!
