sakura_sk Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 (A continuation of Corners: Do they exist?) What is a corner really... ....Does a radbolt care for it? ....Does a corner actually exist in its two dimensions or is there a third dimension that gives special abilities to radbolts? Radbolts have the ability to go pew pew! And if there is a corner in their way? Whatever... But what if there are multiple corners. Can radbolts be stopped?! No... They go vooom! and pass one corner after the other like corners don't exist! *It costs more radbolts to travel diagonally though... so a radbolt cannot travel to its full potential of 500 tiles... more like 325 or so..
