Hey guys just to keep gap reporting away from bugs and problems reports. Please send me/us images of where you find gaps in the landscape or you get trapped between objects. Usually rocks are to blame, but there are ruins starting to come in and gaps will be noted.

What is a gap or a hole? It is a spot that takes you inside the world where you know you shouldn't be.

For Example of reported holes: With thanks to Zeando ;)

Holes/Gaps like these will allow you to enter inside the island where the level designers don't intend for you to go. A shot like this is alil hard to tell where it is. I can tell personally its from the floating island but where exactly?


Zeando has been nice enough to submit another more zoomed out picture of where they are and circled them. Zoomed out images are the most help even without the red scribble least I know where that is globally I can look around and find them.

So please drop your links/images in here and I can track them down! :D

Alpha16 Alpha19 Alpha22

Holes for Alpha31 are accepted

Yes, Stone Lord, we are at your service. (besides hunting for holes is fun) *we need an angel icon - just sayin*

First let me say I have invented a new word - Holeunking (think spelunking). Second let me say never go alone. I am now stuck some where up this hole trying to invent a teleporter to get me free. I was trying to see where it came out. >.> That's my story.

These 2 are from the waterfall on the starter island.

As you can the flying rings are in the background of this picture.
It seems as if any area that has a large amount of the purple rock I can find a gap along the lower part of where the purple rock and grey rocks meet.

BlackWulf
View from inside. This is on the center island under the floating island.

The area above the griffon where the 2 types of rock meet is the opening

The center island is still in the works So there's probably holes everywhere that will slowly disappear. Thanks for pointing them out :D

Alpha 26 is out, No longer accepting holes from previous versions

i flew down the waterfall from the lake below the floating island. I can fly under this rock formation, which is cool, but i expect not intended.

Hope this is a good enough view to locate the right area. I'm trying to fly right back at the location I came out of the rocks.

BlackWulf
Same island as above but different area. Circled white area is wide open and can be flown thru with ease.

I found a hole somewhere near the spawning beach, possibly a bit inland. I can't identify exact location because I was trying to get into chat while flying close to the ground.
This is where I ended up:

Journey to the centre of the world.

:nervous: I've been there before snygyst !

Starter island, fly straight at the waterfall about half way up then veer to the right just before hitting the water. Looks like there's an entire rock missing from that area.
BlackWulf
Opens up the entire side of the hill.

Starter Island around past Azartash Rock headed toward the rings.
near azartash rock

Start Island again. Near the start ring.
holes by start rings

start ring holes from pic above.

Mac Truck size hole near start rings.
start ring big hole
large hole behind start rock

actually there are several there. looks like some rocks slid down. quite a large overhang at that spot.

Good stuff Piece, may explain why we keep ending up near the griffin training rings when we emerge after falling through a hole.

Found myself under the floor of the ruins inside the floating island.
BlackWulf
The leaves on the wall to the right aren't solid. Thats not how I got in there but thats how I got out.
Highly recommend NOT going in, it took me awhile to find a hole to crawl out of.

BlackWulf
Flying from the starter island up toward the floating island there's a white dot(just above his right wing) and if you fly into it there's a huge rock missing in the side of the mountain.
BlackWulf
Odd platform to nowhere inside the middle of the floating island.

lol well considering it was there before the big cavern took you awhile to find it. ;) But no seriously it was going to be a sub entrance to the cavern but it may end up being a hidey hole for something. The gap isn't ment to be there from underneath it though..

I want to put a quarantine tent/bubble over the area im working on. But I'm not allowed to lol
