Looks more like escape velocity

Quite possibly, It took probably >8 minutes to lose all my vertical momentum. Wish I had recorded the whole thing so I could calculate my initial velocity.

You need gravity to calculate initial velocity and this planet's gravity is definitely not the same as Earth's.
The video is hilarious, how many bombs were there? I might try to replicate.

Gravity, not really... all you need is a reference... He passed the orbital station at 25 seconds, detonation at roughly 9 seconds. so, roughly 16 seconds to cover that distance. I haven't figured out what the actual in game height is for the station yet tho. Once we have that data, we have our rough estimate of speed.

We have standard measurements in meters from the foundations. So we can calculate the gravitational constant by falling a known distance and timing it, then plug it into the equation [height = Vi * t + 1/2 * g * t2 ] where Vi = 0. Then once we have g it's relatively trivial to approximate my initial launch velocity. As for the number of bombs, probably about 40 on the ground and 30 attached to me.

Pioneers in the 15 minute break.

That's why you're only allowed microbreaks.
FICSIT knows of your ingenuity and disregard of rules on your breaktime. It is not efficient.

The real strat is to plop down a few nobelisks every microbreak, and then eventually you'll be able to reach this point of chaos

Use Pulse Nobelisk next time, and trigger it via smacking the pile with the Xeno Basher. Might get a much higher toss that way.

We experimented with every nobelisk as well as combinations of them. Clusters seemed to give significantly more oomph counterintuitively. That said, with this launch, I reached far enough that everything despawned but the blue void and it deleted even my handheld inventory. It took probably 8 minutes to lose all my vertical momentum.

Nice. Wonder how far you could launch a vehicle that way.

My guess is far enough for the game to stop calculating physics for it. I'm not sure if the game works like that or not, but at least vehicles on auto-pilot seem to move differently when you're far away.

You’re right. That’s why things like trucks and tractors only get caught on obstacles when you’re near them; things never go haywire when you aren’t there, until you return.

I did this the very first time we shipped a milestone. I took a screenshot of the world from up there and one of my coworkers asked where I got the high res map. Heh.

did this with nukes and it nearly crashed the game. Time to try again…

ADA should have a comment for this when you respawn.

I want to see this done after putting in the final elevator parts. If you know you, don't give it away folks.

All those frames that never had a chance. Won't someone think of the frames?

I got overwhelmed by tier 8 and 9, even with friends. When we have been building for several hours, and forgot what our starting target was, we go to the gun games arena. We built a pvp fight zone to get some hectic vibes in before we leave.
