[@nathearrun3470]

11:32 There is exactly one instance of a moving portal in the games, in Portal 2, using a portal to transmit a laser that cuts off the Neurotoxin factory. Or rather, a moving surface with the portal attached to it - which makes sense, as the portals must be anchored to something relative to current space to avoid it causing portal cuts due to the movement of the Earth and the galaxy. Also, another question to consider: What happens to the mass of the wormholes when a portal is destroyed and remade?

[@nitinrai8474]

Well in short the whole concept of creating and destroying portals completely violates the conservation of energy so is essentially impossible

[@HungryHunter]

i assume it will do a perfect and i mean perfect cut. The pole is now split in subatomic scale. Ready your seatbelt because i don't know that happen if you cut even something simple as iron atoms in half.

[@scritch8833]

@@HungryHunter you get NUCLEAR SOUP

Technically to create a wormhole you would need something with negative mass to contract the space between the two portal ends, so in the portal universe they have not only managed to produce exotic matter but also propel it and make it into a shape that is not a circle

[@eelmail2077]

One of the laws in portal is that portals can’t be moved. There is only one location in the games that this doesn’t not happen, in which the game devs needed to make a completely separate script to make it happen. They also said that they knew that it was against the continuity but hoped that the cool scene would cover this problem.

[@yuckhope2600]

omg i was playin portal 2 a couple days ago, and just noticed that one scene. i didnt think much about it the first few times I played it, but that last time really threw me off for some reason

That scene is what's know as a retcon. Meaning portals can indeed be moved and them not moving was a game mechanic.

question B: my second answer: if the metal rod is stiff, it will completely stop the falling portal, keeping it in it's original position. question D: what will happen if you now close both portals? will it get cut? or will it return to a normal pole? my answer: the portals have no insides, whatever comes in is going to come out in the other portal. it will snap, leaving the top part as the bottom part, and the bottom part sticked to the top part will be the top part.

[@WhoAmIInHere]

it will get cut from both sides

question b answer: as orange moves down pole is pushed out from blue and if the pole is weak it gets squished but if it’s strong it stops the portal

[@Capt_Sunny]

Nope question B is actually impossible. Simple answer is that portals can't move. They are stationary until destroyed. You can see this in the first game when a you put a portal on a movable trap door. It simply disappears.

This was actually only seen if the portals were spatially separated. What they don't seem to be, however, were they not functioning as a wormhole in the sun. If they did not have the same position in space, i.e. a space exists between them, the player also had to cross it, which is not the case in the game. The two ends are spatially in the same position. It's more like a tire where the two sides are two different colors. Because the two portals are next to each other, the negative mass and the positive mass balance each other out. The portal remains stable. No matter how much mass goes through or not.

11:30 In the second portal game campaign, moving portals actually do exist. They're how you take down Glados's neurotoxin generator.

[@cuddlefish7798]

But they don't transfer matter just a lazer,light a form of energy

[@TDGalea]

The custom maps shown were in Portal 2. The engine still does not handle moving portals at all. If you're near a moving portal, the game will freak out. If that portal moves through an object, it'll act as if no portal is there, as you've seen. The exception is that one single map where they're enabled. Otherwise, they really don't work.

[@protoborg]

@@TDGalea Wrong. The game does NOT freak out when a moving portal is near an object. In fact, the engine actually tries to make it work. The problem arises from the equation used to determine object movement through portals which ends up with an very large, unstable number. This causes the game to act erratically. It is not that the game can't handle moving portals. It is that the programmers did not take the time to create an algorithm that can handle the large numbers that would be involved.

[@protoborg]

@@cuddlefish7798 Matter and energy are two forms of the same thing so...

[@TDGalea]

@@protoborg Right. And to the people out there who don't understand the behind the scenes workings of Portal, that looks like it freaking out.

[@Sarah_Lizz]

The game kind of compensates for the mass addition and subtraction. If you put a cube into a portal on the floor so it comes out a portal on the ceiling, the cube moves ever so slightly until it hits the edge of the portal and bounces out. So the portal prevents an overload of mass by taking into consideration the initial force used to insert the cube into the portal.

[@doctorcreeps2169]

the cube moving slightly and then hitting the portal and bouncing out is literally just because the portals arent perfectly placed. if the portals were in the absolute perfect place the cube would fall forever with no negative affects whatsoever

What about "Conspiracy Theory?" Exploring different conspiracies and explaining how they gained traction, any truth that may exist in them, and disproving them if possible.

[@FBI-dr4bk]

U had the same idea I had. It would be pretty funny to have a channel dedicated to different weird conspiracy theories, and exposing any truths in them

Is this the official FBI trying to throw us off with a KZbin channel. Dedicated to conspiracy theories.

[@sighmon5640]

i dont feel like that might be in the spirit of the channel as it stands. depending one what he would cover it might get kinda controversial, especially the disproving part.

[@rentertainment2769]

[@Psyren_Song]

With the pole I’m pretty sure it will actually stay still because the petals are atomically thin, as it is bending space to connect the room to itself, like a pole dancing pole stays still(some of them as othered are made to spin) because it is solidly connected to both the roof and floor, and the pole in here is solid connected to the roof and floor as it is connected to itself like a circle but instead of it being bent the world is instead being bent around it, also if the pole is affected by gravity like that through the portal then there would be air rushing through the portals at it’s terminal velocity due to the fact that gravity would be pulling it though the blue portal

[@Psyren_Song]

Watching more I realize the way your saying will make the pole melt due to the heat generated by friction due to the fact that it won’t stop therefore generating a constant friction ergo a constant source of heat

lets all agree that book theory would just be dedicated to the infinite amount of releasing fnaf books

[@Dhakadice]

1) Yes, gravity will make it accelerate downwards. (It will also start moving around slightly in the other two dimensions and eventually hit the sides, denting it in the process, possibly even shaving off bits off it by the edge of the blue portal) 2) Lowering the yellow portal would first make the pole tilt and eventually either... a) Jam the mechanism by applying force from the side (if the lowering mechanism is weaker than the pole). b) Start shaving off the sides of the pole by the edge of the blue portal (if the pole is weaker). c) Start deforming/flattening the pole. 3) Changing placement of one of the portals should simply cut the rod off and spit it out of the yellow portal at high velocity. Since the puzzle is based on things the engine can't do (like merging two surfaces that are clearly defined as being a specific distance from each other), the spit-it-back-out-on-one-side mechanic should be disregarded. Also, the rod is basically a 4-dimensional torus with finite length.

So, for perpetual motion and infinite energy, all you need to do is keep reopening and closing the portals every so often. If you had a machine that after, let's say, every 5 passes an object does through the portal then it closes it and opens a new one and the same on the bottom portal then, you could have infinite energy without the inmediate possibility of a black bole. While very dangerous, still possible.
