Last beta version of my latest maps. If you hop up top on the pyramidal stack of barrels, then jump up you hit your head on the ceiling... no problem, usually... except when you do it from the top of the barrels... YOU DIE. Anybody know why this is happening? Kinda funny, actually...

HELP!

Is there a BSP hole there?

I'm thinking of that nasty hole in Die Piggy Piggy ...

Hm... I tried jumping from the top of the barrel pyramids... only result was a slight headache. No instagib psycho ceilings here.

Is it just one particular pyramid? If so, a screenshot with a huge red ring around the problem would help. :p

Either pyramid... testing it online it happened with more regularity. Offline It happens "occasionally."

No visible BSP problems that I can see.

This problem reminds me of what happens on SIAB's foosball map - stand on one of the rotating pieces by either goal and jump and you'll fly way up, hit the map's ceiling and then come down and die from the fall.

I don't know if this problem in your map Hort is an instant-bsp-style death or what, so these might be apples and oranges here.

I really can't get it to kill me no matter how much I jump up and down on those pyramids. Spent about 15 minutes jumping around like a rabid monkey. :D

Anyway - the obvious way to solve the problem would be to subtract some BSP above the barrels... which would also add detail to the ceiling. Two flies with one swat, hopefully.

yes it happens to me too. I can't get all the way up. As I ascend, the second jump is what kills me instagib. I will look at it in editor snd see if I can find anything. Nice map though.
