Outer Wilds - Any% Shipless Speedrun in

Sub 9! This is probably pretty close to the limits of this category right now, 8:4x is likely possible but not by much.

Fucking scout launching towards the big bang

[@everydaysniper9390]

I think its really funny that the devs making it so scout launcher had kickback unknowingly resulted in movement tech that made stuff like this possible

[@alejosuarconde1145]

I'm a bit late, but considering you can use actual space calculations to pilot the Nomai ship, I think they had the scout's kickback in mind.

[@user-ct8rh5ld5e]

​@@alejosuarconde1145Wait a second now you can do what????

[@alejosuarconde1145]

@@user-ct8rh5ld5e What I meant to say is that in order to pilot the Nomai ships perfectly you need to take into account: -the gravity pull of other planets and the sun. -The speed and direction of your ship. -The fact that by being on a planet you are moving with it, meaning that the ship's speed could be cancelled if you launch in a direction opposite to your planet's orbit. (These are things you would have to consider if you wanted to send a rocket to space.)

[@Shayrin2]

@@alejosuarconde1145 it’s not the Nomai ship tho. There’s only 2 nomai ship, the Vessel (which you can’t pilot) and the Shuttle (which you can… launch in space, I guess). You probably mean the Hearthian ship ?

[@Y2B123]

In a game that is all about fearless exploration with the end goal of outrunning a supernova, it is fitting that the speedrun is not glitchy at all except for the launch code part. All players are expected to master those mechanics, although definitely not to the same extent.

How do you practice tricks like escaping the bridge of the vessel during the warp? bc obviously if you fail the trick you can't try again without doing a whole 'nother run.

Insane amazing gg. I gotta ask--is there a tool you can use to route the timing of the planet orbits, or is it just trial/error/game knowledge?? This looks wildly complicated gg again

[@ptminsker]

We have a tool that maps out the position of every planet over the course of the loop, and we also have a record of when all of the different warp alignments on ash twin are. Very much a necessity for routing, especially with shipless categories where things get more complicated.

[@chri-k]

wait. is scout-boosting towards the big bang real? I never considered that you _wouldn't_ have your velocity locked during that sequence

[@DagothXil]

....is there a universe in which one could hypothetically scout-boost _away_ from the big bang well enough to survive? I assume it just reuses code from the supernova so it'd fizzle out past like 15km or w/e

[@ptminsker]

Yes you can actually scoutboost away from the big bang and escape it if you use mods to boost the power of the scout. Juliuscube did this and posted it in the discord a while back when we first discovered the scoutlauncher could move you there.

[@thesuperginge1348]

Why is it quicker to glitch out of the vessel instead of teleporting down? I'm trying to picture how long it normally takes, what do you shave off by doing this?

[@storm000]

Like a minute and a half. It takes a while because the eyes gravity is really strong so you have to walk real slow. Leaving the vessel immediately skips all of the walking and takes you to the next phase.

Why does the timer stop when at the campfire? Not a big deal, but feels like it's part of the run, can't get the time without it.

[@JustAJAG]

The rate at which the time passes while sleeping depends on how powerful your system is. Pausing the timer while sleeping maintains parity so that you wouldn't lose time simply because you're playing on a slower machine.

She is only there if you meet her in one of your loop. The whole quantum moon stuff is actually a dead end that give no vital info about how to beat the game, so it could be skipped, and in that case there is no reason lorewise for your character to have Solanum at the campfire.
