      It makes perfect sense, what do you think is harder? Putting a burning building or making a volcano? Volcanos are made by nature, buildings are made by man. Even if they use molten steel in a rock pit, they would have to keep it hot which would use alot of energy, or else it would harden when it cools down. Burning building is easy, make a building, put some gasoline on it, spark it up and we have a viable temporary stage. When the stage transforms simply water it down and make it airtight to store it.

    Here's my theory: it transforms inside the ring only, and it looks like a morph, but I think it actually just swaps them out on the final frame, and the morph is separate moving geometry. When it swaps, you are below the ground there as it is the lowest point, lower than the main stage, thus you fall through

  • @blegher
    @blegher 4 ปีที่แล้ว +88

    I have a thought. So when coding objects and terrains, an important thing to consider when the object is being built is the angles, particularly whether the object has any sort of internal obtuse angles (stuff like a stars). This bug occurs due to most collision systems calling the vertex of a shape rather than the edge (as most shapes are generated using their vertex and the edges are a calculated component made from the vertex). This sort of bug is fixed in a bunch of different ways, but it usually has to come in a separate object generation function than the standard one. There's a chance that the function that they call to fix this internal obtuse angle doesn't work for those specific parts. My guess is that the tree that Samus can do her shenanigans had two internal obtuse angles, and the programmers called the function for one of them but not the other. Another guess is that the function they use to fix this bug is called whenever characters and items are in contact with an object marked as having an internal obtuse angle. So when Samus goes into her ball form, the game doesn't realize that she's there (possibly due to an oversight) and she clips through. The Marth clip seems like it could be a similar oversight with hurtbox and model collision with internal obtuse angles. If the code for detecting whether an item or character is in collision is based on the model while movement of characters is based on the hurtbox, then a conflict can occur if these don't line up perfect over a specific angle (this could apply to the Samus thing as well).

    • @ultralowspekken
      @ultralowspekken 4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      About Samus being a different object when transformed: while I don't know if that is true (but I think the player object doesn't despawn-- it just calls a ball model for the length of the dodge), the technique used (the wave dash) can be used by anyone, so potentially anyone can clip through the tree the way Samus did. The only difference is that Samus can use her swingshot to stick to the tree and climb back in.
      So I would discard that one hypothesis

      I see so many posts criticizing Ultimate's competitive scene; I have a simple solution. PLAY MELEE. Or play Project plus; it fixes everything that is wrong with Melee, and has it's own community with regular tournaments.
      Ultimate at it's core is still a game catered to casual players, which is why there are so many limitations and ambiguities at tournament level. Ever since Brawl, Sakurai has made that a point in his development after seeing how Melee developed such a strong competitive scene.
      The "competitive features" he added were after a cursory examination of the competitive Brawl scene in Japan. Brawl, NOT Melee, cuz Brawl was much more popular than Melee in Japan compared to the rest of the world (which makes sense as competitive Melee started in America) and the opinions of the Japanese are always gonna be considered before anyone else, being Nintendo. Note how in the first iteration of "For Glory" mode in Sm4sh, the "competitive versions" of every stage were FD, not also Battlefield. Why? Cuz FD is often the stage of preference in Japanese competitive Smash going back to Melee even. Even in Ultimate, the stuff you can do on platforms is so horrendous you should just stick to FD.
      I see Hungrybox making his pleas to Nintendo over and over, but he might as well be talking to a brick wall.

    Comp sci student here! I think I have a pretty good guess.
    Often times in a lot of games, there flat out doesn't HAVE to be a gap in order for a clip to happen. If a character is crushed between 2 or more solid objects at an angle where they can't escape, and those objects aren't programmed to be affected by the character themselves, the character will just clip through at least one of those objects. It's usually the consequence of a physics engine that attempts to emulate the concept of "every action has an equal and opposite reaction", applying it to some things (the characters), but not others (the trees). The stationary tree grips the character tight enough that it would crush someone in real life. The tree can't be affected by the force of the character, but the character is pushed in multiple contradictory directions by the tree, and it's not programmed to react to being crushed other than "get pushed in x direction by object". So whichever force is more powerful for one reason or another (be it angle or dev preference) pushes the character in that direction. The direction these characters are being pushed happens to be beyond the collision barrier of the tree.

    3:16 probably the shape of the terrain causes collision detection to fail, it is really difficult to simulate this kind of physics with multiple strange angles, more technically it probably happens because the collision box for the character collides with multiple things at the same time, you need to choose a behavior for when you collide with an obstacle, often you simply move the character back by a vector equal to the normal of the obstacle in the collision point so that if you would go past a wall you just end up against it, but in some cases this can cause you to collide with another shape, if this last shape has the correct angle this process will repeat entering a feedback loop that ends with your character on the other side of the wall, so you need edge cases for this kind of stuff but doing all edge cases is almost imposible, which is why you can often go out of bounds in games mainly moving onto terrain with collision geometry with odd angles and why most platform games use grids and try to avoid diagonal platforms, this isn't that bad, doing this right is hard, think about it, nintendo is one of the biggest game developers but you still can go out of bounds in mario odyssey

    maybe you fall through the stage on the left side of the tree (i’m talking about the clip at 3:13) because as it transforms, the dirt patch (which rises a bit) can overlap the bottom of your collision box and if you are at the very very right of the white part where the ledge as it transforms when you walk to the right you’ll fall through?

    Remember the ECB, and how it's a large diamond shape? Well, I was wondering if it being compressed between two opposite walls would cause it to decide to be on the other side of one of them, such as with the tree on the fire transformation. As for the shine 2018 incident, it could be a very similar situation to the DK jungle glitch where the spacies can dthrow the marios into the stage itself.
    A lot of the mid-transformation jank could probably be attributed to the ECB not knowing how to react to shifting collision.

    3:18 I suspect it might have to do with the very high angle walls collision; it’s basically vertical, so the wall collision might push the floor collision point BELOW the floor before it gets checked. I’m not sure if this explains the leftmost area, but it does explain the tree and the tree roots on the right.

  • @undercovertoni

    Pretty sure you can fall through the stage because in all of those spots there's a sharp corner where 2 collision planes meet. A lot of old games just don't handle corner collision or intersecting collision very well. So while there might not be an actual gap there, it might as well have one since the game doesn't know which way to push the character out of the planes.

    the regular geometry of the stage doesn't necessarily apply to when the stage has transformed.

    Is it possible that the tree has brought parts of the normal stage up with it, and there is a replacement patch while that transformation is there?

    Random guess. Usually when two walls close in on a player, the player phases through the walls. This can happen on a v shaped hole on the stage as well depending on a character’s hit box. It’s probably the wavedash that leads to it maybe since it closes the gap. 🤷‍♂️
