Anonymous Bug Reporter Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 (edited) Reported Version: v0.2.0 (latest) | Mods: none | Can replicate without mods? Yes OS: Windows 11 Home | CPU: Intel Core i5-10400F | GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 | RAM: 8.00 GB I do not know much about the technical inner-workings of the game so you'll have to forgive me if I have made incorrect assumptions. Occasionally during atmospheric flight/re-entry there will be a frame or two where the screen flashes to black. When the game resumes the parachutes on my craft have turned at an odd angle as though my craft's velocity or position has suddenly changed. To be clear the actual velocity was not affected and the game continued as normal but it was rather jarring. It is my guess that this was caused by whatever floating origin system the game uses not updating the visuals at the correct time. I do not have a screenshot of this as it happens and disappears too suddenly to catch. Edited December 25, 2023 by The Space Peacock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Filed.Teeth Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Ok. I couldn't figure out how to link the old one out of the archives, so I just posted the title. As long as it's noted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that is not surprising, when the World is snapped back to the origin from 21km, the difference between one frame and the next is huge: for physics, for accuracy of positions, everything. You are getting this problem because you are not using "floating origin". Real floating origin does not move the player/vehicle from the origin at all, ever.

cosmochristo Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) Unfortunately, this is a common problem with all origin/world-shifting solutions. You can hack it with different size shifts, but that does not scale as you increase speed. Origin-shifting / rebasing will never be a general-purpose solution to large-scale Worlds because it falls foul of the rapidly lowering resolution of the underlying floating point numbers.
