If there's a bus careening toward you on the other end, you're not going to see it through the portal.Īs for coding a portal gun, I wouldn't count on it.

I'm sure it's possible to rig up some form of cubemap or other shader wizardry to make the other side visible, but it would be a static, hand-built system: you can't create portals in realtime, and you can't see changes to the level happening on the other side**. In Portal, you can see through the portal to the other side. Supposing that you did do it, though, you'd have more or less functional portals*. There may be a way to abuse either wind or spherical gravity to accelerate a vehicle to match its former speed, but it would be difficult, unstable, and not exactly seamless. There's currently no way to just give a vehicle a velocity. It's gonna teleport and be instantly stationary.

So if your entry portal is located in the road, but the exit portal is located on the wall, the vehicle isn't going to keep its speed. But there's a catch: if you also change the vehicle's orientation, you lose momentum (and damage, though I'll picture that's less important to you). Trigger code, scenario code, level code, etc. Anything that can run Lua can, in theory, teleport a vehicle in realtime. The traffic tool uses this to great effect, and it can be done in a myriad of ways. It does not store any personal data.There are plenty of angles to this one, so I'll start by describing the parts of a portal effect, á la Portal: The cookie is set by the GDPR Cookie Consent plugin and is used to store whether or not user has consented to the use of cookies.
