Hole In Mission Map


Hyperstrike

 

Posted

While running the mission Betray Dr. Hetzfeld from the contact Dr. Hetzfeld in Neutropolis, I found a hole in the map. It's a doorway in the wall that has no door, and leads to an empty black space. If you step through, you fall to the bottom of the map, and are left with 1 HP. It is on the map P_TECH_BIO_15_LAYOUT_02_02, at /loc 409.0 -32.0 350.7 facing West.

Yeah. I reported this some time back too.



Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

Many of the Rikti Maps have a hole in them as well. There is one particular type of "room" that doesn't exactly line up with the hallways, so when they are put together, the ceilings don't match, allowing you to jump right out of the map.

Example:

SmoothCaves-Rikti_45_Layout_01
(-772, 64, 547: Facing West)


On a side note.. it appears the Rikti maps also have some kind of invisible Power system that you can only see from outside the map. It's purpose is not evident to me. lol:


There are other invisible objects right in the middle of the hallway:


You can even collide with the objects in the hallway.
You can see it's edges in the Rikti's shadow as it stands on the object:


There are other objects that I have noticed before, but they aren't on the map I'm currently on to provide pictures. The floating Rikti "Computer" is a common one. It even gives off a glow that you can see on the floor, even though you can't see the object itself. If you see that glowing spot in corners of hallways or dead-ends, try jumping on top of it.

Some invisible objects are given a power or are used to trigger an even when you come near them.

I guessing the ones in your pic are light sources.

Actually, I've been paying attention to it more, and I did notice those power lines visible on a different map. Why they would be made invisible on the map I was on earlier is anybody's guess. Same goes for the Rikti computers. They are visible on some maps, and invisible on others, but you can stand on top of them in both cases. I don't think they have anything to do with lighting.
