Multi-binding

Post by Nanu Nanu »

I'm really curious about multi-binding. Was the game created with this in mind, or was it something that players just sort of discovered? Forgive me if this is a stupid question, I've just always wondered what the origins of it were.

For a short history of Double binding read this article on the Armagetron Wiki.

Thanks Compguy, I guess I should have researched it on the wiki first before coming here :P

The text still doesn't say how you create a wormhole and travel through time. :twisted:

If quaternions could be used like I described (it would have to be implemented, not just conceived of), you wouldn't be able to teleport. It would take incredibly lucky timing to even get back in exactly the right plane. It would necessarily be a detour, too, assuming no walls are in the way in the standard plane. Your reemergence would certainly surprise others, but you'd still be bound by the usual speed limit.
