Crate Jumping
« on: March 02, 2012, 11:38:13 pm »
Is this intended to be possible? I discovered that a player can jump great heights by jumping, putting a crate below his/her feet and then jumping again. if it's done right, you can do it theoretically infinitely, if it weren't for the vertical boundary. I kind of like it as it's really useful for escaping holes in the thawing plains without wasting a lot of crates, but I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a feature or not.

EDIT: Apparently there's already a thread for this. Sorry, didn't see it.

Why has everybody suddenly started doing this, that is what i want to know?

Personally My chosen way to get out of deep holes is jumping, teleporting upwards and then storm dashing across, it looks cool if naught else.

The background-less ice age thawing areas brought this on, I'm pretty sure.

I'm glad we can at least jump off boxes now. before 0.900 I couldn't jump off boxes which was annoying in rooms with a lot of boxes lol

Yeah, that's how I found it. I had a jump enchant and RTL, but still couldn't get high enough. So I tried Crate Stacking and discovered that you could do this. It's a lot like prop hopping in Portal, actually.
