After looking at the code to fix issue fount this little trick called the get out of jail card if you get stuck in a wall or object.

Press capslock then the letter K will move the char out of the stuck area.

Not sure if anyone else knew that but if you didn't well you do now.

Funnily enough, I had that exact problem the other day. While testing alpha 4, using the derelict space station sample map, I got stuck and couldn't free myself.

Thanks for the solution

Thanks s4real. I personally find few things as frustrating as building a level, changing something, rebuilding to test and then getting stuck without being able to test the change you made!

I didn't say thanks for letting us know about this little trick. I asked Lee about the player getting stuck issue in FPSC and if it would be handled in FPSC-R. Here is what he said.

Quote: "FPSC suffered from this because we had TWO collision systems fighting each other. In the new system we will be dropping both and replacing them with a single PhysX physics engine which can handle both player controller movement AND object dynamics. No need for Lee to fudge the missing parts of ODE The result 'should' be a uniform experience for collision using multi-core techniques to speed everything up so you probably won't notice collision in the new product; it would just 'work'."


We all should be excited about Reloaded for as lot of reasons and this is a good one.

THEORY - you know everything but nothing works. PRACTICE - when everything works but don't know why. For me, theory and practice are combined: nothing works and I don't know why.

I have this bug sometimes, if i build rooms with segments.
Then i must click "Only floor" and make the floor only again,
So it is all on one level.

I hope you can understand my broken English but for me it works fine!

Regards from Germany, TGS
