At 6:30 the lizard people tried to prevent you from going off the edge by extending it underneath you. Actually I think KSP interpolating between LoD levels and dynamically smoothing edge normals causes the motion effect, and since it's a strong convex curve the lower LoD levels appear below it. It should happen everytime when you're close to surfaces but very far away from the traditional surface level, as Unity desperately tries to decrease LoD.

[@excrubulent4729]

Seems like it might be a mix of that and the fact that the planet is rotating maybe? Like if the planet is rotating it should have a pretty high velocity out near the edge of that enormous disc.

[@tacticalassaultanteater9678]

@@excrubulent4729 I believe that the textures are fixed relative to the surface, so this wouldn't explain the mountains swirving underneath him. It should however create a pretty strong coriolis force, which definitely adds to the illusion of the planet not wanting to end.

@@Gameslinx Oh, it is pretty funny, but only if you can stand the appalling dishonesty they resort to. I've dealt with a couple of 'em, and they are more often times than not nauseatingly deceitful. For example, I can already tell you that, no matter how many times you explain it and how simply you do so, these cretins will keep pretending that gravity is somehow aligned with some arbitrary cosmic direction, just so they can mindlessly rant "bud peple in astraila r upside don so hou dey not fall of????!?11/!" Fuck, I've given one of those cretins a full derivation of Newtonian gravitation using nothing but observations by Tycho Brahe and geometric equations, and _still_ the contemptible little piss-artist kept whining about gravity somehow supposedly pulling people in Australia off the Earth. I swear, these people are personified flies: they have a pathological attraction to horse shit and keep ramming into the same obstacles without a second's worth of thought or learning. Watching them gives me this bizarre mixed feeling of amusement, frustration and depression. Amusement because c'mon, it's classic Dunning-Kruger effect; frustration because I despite lies and straw men and these people are seemingly obsessed with them, and depression because it's hard to accept that people really are _this_ idiotic. I'll close off with that I consider to be my funniest encounter with one of these idiots. First I asked him: 'if Earth is enclosed by a dome, then why does the atmosphere have a pressure gradient?' Naturally he had an explanation for this, and by 'explanation' I of course mean the flat earther definition of the word, that is 'a collection of blustering expressions of outright denial'. I then explained to him what happens to bottles of water, sealed bags of potato chips and even human ears when one goes up or down a mountain, and how this clearly indicates a difference in pressure. His response was to do a quick 180 and argue that "it's just aether bands!". Yes, the atmospheric pressure gradient is a consequence of alleged bands in the non-existant aether. Talk about debating low hanging fruit though. I actually have a clip by flat earth youtuber and first-class fucktard "Nathan Oakley" where he openly admits that he has no idea how to convert meters into kilometers, and when his interlocutor explains that a division by 1000 is all it takes, he objects, blows up and calls his interlocutor "retarded." There's nothing you can do to these people that they don't already do to themselves. Flies, remember? You can swat one, but give it a window and it'll do that on its own. Anyhow, I don't think I've ever seen Kerbin get _this_ f-'ed up, and I'm a Danny2462 subscriber.

[@kalebbruwer]

6:15 I think I know what causes the bug. When games map textures, they tend to do that by "cutting" a piece out of the texture map, at a specific coordinate on the texture map. It looks like those coordinates are changing. So the ground has the same shape, but the textures are rolling along. Edit: Okay so the ground just came out at him, but I think that is a separate bug.

[@creativenametxt2960]

Fun fact: the original law of gravity only works with 2 points. Later it has been proven that a point inside a spherical casing has all the forces canceled out and a point outside a spherical casing has the same gravity as it would if the casing was collapsed into a point at the COM. What this means is that the disk... doesn't have the same law of gravitational pull and you probably can't even orbit it normally.

[@Gameslinx]

An orbit should work the same. Gravity would still act toward the centre of the disk because as you get further out, more and more of the disk is behind you so gravity will act toward all of that mass. The orbit would stay stable because any deviation created by moving from the side of the disk to the top would be cancelled out by the other half of the orbit - moving from the top of the disk to the side. The orbit may not be entirely circular, though. I'll have to read up on this because I'm just speculating at the moment

[@creativenametxt2960]

@@Gameslinx it will not be circular for sure, but you are probably right about it being stable. It also depends on the angle of the orbit relative to the disk, most likely.

[@creativenametxt2960]

@@Gameslinx I have written a simple python program and the orbit is pretty much the same, but it doesn't loop. So, it is almost a circle that gets offset with each loop.

[@danzaivar]

Isn't the ground moving away from you at the edge caused by the planets rotation as the day passes? It's just way more noticeable when the planets like a kilometer thick

[@Gameslinx]

It was a bit weirder than that. I was travelling relative to the surface so its rotation wouldn't matter much. It didn't appear to be moving away from me but you may be right - it could be its rotation. What was odd was both my "orbit" and "surface" speeds were wrong, and it seemed as if the terrain was different for both modes!

im pretty sure that the ground was freaking out and teleporting because the disc was just the right size so that when you get close to the edge, it switches that section to higher detail. this is done so that when you are landed, the spot where you are is high quality, however the rest of the planet is low quality and it gets lower the further away you are. this usually is not noticable because the change is big when you are far away and much smaller when you are close, the size of the disc was just the right size so that it adds alot more detail because you are very far away from it, but you're really not.
