iay@there: Musings on a Virtual World

I saw this Happy Vertical People Transporter the other day in a portazone outside Zephyr. It is made of a stack of the lowest angle “kick” ramps carefully tweaked so that when a male avatar walks in, There’s collision algorithm pushes the avatar up through each successive layer. As I understand it, a female avatar (being slightly less tall) needs to keep walking forward to make this particular elevator work, but it is possible to tune the stack for different heights.
