    There is a similar "glitch" with the grappling hook where you grapple onto the middle tile of a door and open it, it's a great method to get to top speed. It doesn't send you through walls, but it's the same launching idea.

    "Myth": Any worm-type enemy (Worms, Wyvern, Bone Serpent, desert underground worms, etc.) is blocked from spawning, as long as the player stands in front of safe background walls. This is also why no worms spawn when you descend into the desert through the pyramid, since those are safe background walls
    Saves you a lot of headaches when fishing in hardmode on sky islands, since wyverns won't knock you around all the time

    • @jonasgajdosikas1125
      @jonasgajdosikas1125 3 месяца назад +2

      it *should* work like that, as worm enemies are not an exception to the spawning algorithm. the reason you see so many is that with the ability to go through walls, they are less likely to despawn shortly after and more likely to pathfind their way to the player

      @@jonasgajdosikas1125 I think you're misunderstanding what they are saying. Normal spawning algorithm won't spawn enemies where there's a safe background, but if the player is in front a safe background and there are unsafe or no background areas nearby, enemies can still spawn there (otherwise blood moons would be easily safe). The "myth" being suggested is that if the player is in front of a safe background, worm enemies cannot spawn even at unsafe backgrounds. Pretty sure its a fact, but doesn't hurt to test it.

    I think the shimmer-wall-boost works on the same principle as the door-boost. Hooks give you a bit of movement speed to you stick to a wall, that launches you if you hook to a closed door that you then open, since the shimmer essentially gives you noclip it uses the same principle.

    Fun fact, your little shimmer launch trick also works on doors, and I think actuated blocks as well. Basically, if you had your hook on something and then suddenly don't, you seem to always get a boost as if your hook was still pulling you in for a brief moment. I think it even works on trapdoors going upward, but don't quote me on that.

    I think the hook launch with shimmer just works the same way as when you hook to a door and then open it. The game realizes you could move further so it tries but then also realizes there shouldn’t be a hook there so gives you momentum but you keep it bc the hook isn’t there.

    A few months ago I accidentally teleported into the temple using a teleportation potion, but it was in getfixedboi seed, maybe you could test that!

    You can actually get into the temple if you use the pwn hammer on the background walls to break then teleport onto the space with no background wall (pwn hammer bit) sooo

    I think the shimmer + hook throw could be called shimmer hooking.
    Technically it works the exact same as door hooking so yea.
