Is this considering glitching in Deep Violet

There is this place in Deep Violet where you can easily fly up into this room with a transparent floor where it is pretty safe. Someone said it's glitching but normally glitches are not place where you can plainly go to without any special tricks. The place even has doors. Seems like map design to me. What admins think is what counts. So what is the verdict by server admins on this, do you consider this glitching and will I get kicked or banned for being there? What admins say I will abide by. Thanks.

DW members? Til this day I have yet to see a DW member go up there.
It is considered glitching to be up there.
I've been considering to edit that map for the longest time. I guess I should do that now to resolve this issue.

I confirm that this is a glitch. I've warned multiple player trying to hide there already in the past and present day.

There are at least 2 other places which DW's have warned are cheats. While there are multiple glitch points in DV, some are cheats while others are just annoying to get trapped in, such as getting stuck in the vertically moving wall beside the damage amp. And you can get stuck in at least some of the lifts in the large room next to the mines.

are any of these other places anything we should be concerned about? if we can get to those places without cheating by using normal movement but they are banned places anyway then they are pretty much same as above and players need to know to stay out of them, and we would want these places fixed because you don't have to cheat to get to them. i have no clue what those places are so hard for me to say. hopefully the above place is the only such place with this issue??

Some glitches you get get into intentionally, others accidentally. Getting caught in the wall by the amp is rare. I think it happened to me only once. The only way out was to ghost/die. (Teleporter artifact may also have worked but I didn't have one.) I don't recall if I took monster damage in the wall or not. Regardless, it's a glitch.
I think you can still be damaged by monsters in the lift glitches. I don't recall if trans can get you out or not. Either way, it's something that needs fixing.
I'm not sure why it's considered glitching to go into the room with the transparent floor. Monsters can still damage you in there. I think having the room there was intended but IMO the transparent floor was not intended.
I won't mention the other glitch. At least some DW's know of it and have kicked for it. :sevilgrin:

This is glitching :ssmile: .
A blocking volume and the problem is history :sbigsmile: .
The best strategy in this map is to find a small floor.
There you can hide and shoot with many people and the possibility to survive is much higher.
For example in this screenshot there is one near the bridge (follow the path after adrenaline pills) :swink: .

I try to avoid those small elevator pads. Got stuck in one a few times.
