Can anyone explain this physics glitch?

Yes i was refering to the match in the video.

What about that match? That match in the video is in fact that match.

I think he meant opposed to the other match. Which match? This match.

I've been out of the loop for a while... that was the first time I've seen the new hook.

Very nice!

Have you tried the hook under test conditions? It's a very odd glitch. Basically, at some revision after 2.4.2, the hook went from grabbing a player and pulling them toward you, and some kind of reverse thing. Now, when you hook onto a person, the hook itself latches onto the point in space where that player was (like the old hook), but the person you hooked is essentially 'pulled' by a vector opposite to the one pulling you. Or something. In any case, it needs to be fixed/reverted.

No idea what you mean, for me it works just fine.

i know the hook behavior was supposed to be changed (i.e. how it acts on collision with walls), but i wasn't aware it would affect other players, like pushing or pulling them (which would be nice, tho).

is there a server to test this and do i need to update Nexuiz to that version?
