I don't know if this bug has been found before and has made into the bug tracker, but there is a strange behaviour with key object in TDM.

apparently you can make yourself float in the air  with this key bug

i have posted another video on the current beta testing thread, I videoed this bug in a mission called ‘training mission’ to avoid spoilers

so this bug has a term , it's called "object elevatoring".

the same thing also happened to the dark engine, this discussion was on ttlg as well.

Now I wonder what would happen if all game engines had “easter eggs” like this and the way to trigger them is left to the player.

Hi, I actually noticed this behavior and reported it in the Training Mission thread a few weeks ago, thinking it was specific to that mission: 

Of course, if you've noticed it outside the Training Mission then it's probably better that it's also posted outside of that thread as you've done here.

An important thing to note is that not all keys can be "surfed" or elevator-ed, in my experience. Several of the keys in the Stealth section of the Training Mission don't have this problem, and when I tested keys in another mission (can't remember which now) I also failed to reproduce it.

woah you found it earlier than me, nice catch !

 

yup I'm still wondering what makes some keys not affected by this bug.

 

The way I trigger the bug is also more difficult in fan missions outside of training missions. Basically you need the right timing to jump, which direction the key is facing (rotated or not) and the timing to hit the key into the wall.

      Things have been so bad these days for me...
      Just a year ago, I've been feeling dizzy, I thought it was nothing, today's stress, that type of thing, went to sleep...Still dizzy! 9 more days dizzy, went to doctor (I would have gone on the first day if NOT for the long appointment time)
      Said it may be Neck Dizziness...I did exercises for 6 months, no changes.
      Went to a Physical Therapist, went to another, no changes.
      I've asked my doctor for a full check this time.
      I hated yesteryear so much due to personal reasons, this year might be the same.
      To be brutally honest, I'd rather have cancer or/and chronic pain than suffer dizziness any second longer, especially when nothing helps.
      Hard to enjoy Thief when you're dizzy so I was hoping this year, Winter will be best for me.

      Hello mappers and taffers! 

      Are you still out there? It is so calm here these days and I am afraid this is no good sign.
      Proof me wrong, tell your best friend (=me), that you are still here and that you will not go away!

      Happy Labour Day, my taffing taffers & hard working mapping friends!
      And remember the poor souls who, within the Inventors’ organization, labor under Jonus’s yoke to ensure the success of that very guild! Always remember the hard workers!

      Is there a script command to make a screenshot?
      I just though it could be interesting to be able to create a screenshot at a certain point in time. Then use that screenshot possibly in a debrief.
      I guess the second question is: Can you use a (in-game made) screenshot in a (debrief) gui?
