good point. It's a bit odd. Maybe there's a bit of a step between the room he's in and the next. So he jumps into the next one.

It's because they didn't program the game to jump when there was a gap and not jump when there wasn't a gap. It was just easier to make him only jump.
P.S. Neat signiture TiburonFeroz

Maybe it has something to do with tiled rooms... he can't just walk onto a tile. P.S. Neat signiture TiburonFeroz I had a flash of inspiration ;D I think that's 100% correct. I tried in my ST3 game originally walking into the next room but he walked right onto a tile and it looked dumb. I like your sig as well. Nicely done.

Yeah, I wondered that when I was a kid, but I've since just accepted that as just how the game works.
Wow! You've got my vote for best sig! Your "flash" of inspiration gave me an idea... Do they allow flash on the signature? I know I've seen people with javascripts and all that...

I never really did wonder why it was a jump rather than a walk...but now that you've brought it up, it does make sense in the game (what with the tiles and whatnot).
As for flash in the signature...I'm not sure

I think he jumps because if you look, there is a hole after the door. Hell, if there was a hole between rooms in my house, I think I'd jump rather than just walk right into it.

lol. Good point. It's either go into the next room, or fall down a hole and break your tail end.
Survey Says:....Jump!

As for flash in the signature...I'm not sure Nah, Proboards disabled flash a copule years ago because people were misusing it.

Yeah, I do think jumping just looks better in the game as a whole than just walking through a door...
