New Glitch: Poltergeist Glitch!

Archive: 10 posts


I think I've discovered a new glitch! I discovered it purely by accident a few weeks ago while I was messing around with the Collector's Boss object. I crushed all the creature brains with a big block of metal, and it made the "dying" noise, but I paused time before it could disappear. The boss was reduced to a pile of dead junk, but it started doing funny things to my sackperson.

Whenever I was near the boss, an invisible force would seem to pick up my sackperson and shake him vigorously up and down before releasing him. This seemed to happen at random, sporadic intervals, and only when I was inside some invisible field of influence surrounding the boss. It didn't matter if I was in hover mode or not. Deleting the boss or turning on time caused the effects to vanish instantly.

I went over to one of its disconnected brains (which I had attached a wheel to) and stood on it. A similar effect happened: my sackperson was lifted into the air and spun around! This only seems to affect my sackperson's mesh and not his hitbox, as when he is "picked up", he seems to go through things, and is still free to move around, and the game physically treats him as if he was still where he's "supposed" to be.

I discovered that this glitch can be caused simply by creating a creature and then killing it by crushing its brain, and pausing before it disappears. I managed to replicate it through a creature made of just a creature brain and a creature wheel. Other effects seemed to be my sackperson sinking into the floor slightly, or tilting his legs slightly, and then snapping back.

I have no idea what causes this glitch, but I think it's very interesting.

Sure, I can probably do that. I could also back-up the level itself and send it to you so you can experience it firsthand!2010-11-19 03:23:00

This is a bit common when you kill a creature and pause. It's definitely very weird, I thought it was hilarious the first time it happened to me. Some footage would be nice for the people that don't know about it. It's funny 2010-11-19 04:23:00
