    RM Switch
    Created by blanman and ill4everown

    R.M. Stands for Regenerator+Mancannon. ill4everown and I were Forging, when we discovered a new fact about the Man Cannon. The Man Cannon's launch zone is increased when there is a Regenerator in the area. Basically meaning, you can use the Man Cannon from farther away. With understanding, we turned it into a function where, if there is a regenerator, you get launched. A trip mine can be used in place of the regen, but I think the Regenerator is more favorable.

    The Example map we have made goes like this:
    You start at 'A' and have to get to 'B', but have no way to get there
    [​IMG]

    Grab the Regenerator
    [​IMG]

    Throw it down, activating the Man Cannon
    [​IMG]

    ...and fly to success!

    Forging Process
    [​IMG]
    Stack up 4-6 Walls Between the player and the Man Cannon. From that distance, it is safe to walk on, but immergable objects can still be launched. (Remember that this can also be done horizontally)

    [​IMG]
    Throw down your Regenerator to Activate!

    Hoping that this makes for some cooler maps,

    Yes, surprisingly, only the Regenerator has worked thus far, but we will definitely be keeping an eye out for new effects that equipment has.

    Regenerators, like Power Drains, do not have any effect on shields through walls.
    For this application, though, it doesn't matter if there are walls in the way.

    Yea it's a real site, I've been there before too and he is right, this has been discovered long ago and way more complex switches are on that site. If you like switches at all search it on google(i'll get a working link)

    EDIT: LINK

    That sucks. I've never heard of that site before or of this Switch being used. It should really be more noticeable :/

    Nice find! It's been found out as the elevator glitch before. But you put this glitch into a new idea and a detailed explanation. Good Job

    Umm, just so you know, this isn't actually that new, I've known this for more than 3 months now, and I'm already putting it into one of my maps, so you can't exactly say this is yours, but you can say that you found this out yourself, because you did. But don't take credit, because also, my friend xHavoc Reaperx already has his map H.D. Cyclone out which has this in it also. So yeah..
