    [Challenge] Escape Grimrail Depot!

    Hey Explorers! Back when Aviana's Feather worked in dungeons I went to Grimrail depot and found something very interesting with Elekktrikk. The train that you board after the first boss NEVER moves! The terrain is what is moving. Dont believe me? Next time you're there look at the minimap. Your character wont be moving. As the title says I am challenging you guys to find a way to escape this crazy dungeon. It is much easier said than done.
    Some screenshots I took when Aviana's Feather worked:


    Credit to Elekktrikk http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/memb...lekktrikk.html for the theory that the terrain is moving and not the train.

    I figured the train was stationary, and the terrain was moving. It's a common gimmick in games.

    The first time Blizzard did this was during the Gunship fight in Dragon Soul, the skybox had two moving texture planes, while the gunship itself stood still.

    This is the first time I've ever encountered anything like it. I still think that its one of the coolest dungeons in the game and would like to see it explored.

    I imagine the reason they do that is because in WoW if the train was moving and a player jumped they would be thrown off the back as opposed to jumping and landing in the same position

    Tbh you can see it in the difference of texture quality when you're actually on the train; additionally the landscape repeats itself. There'd be a lot more issues with NPCs if the train was to move ^^
