Do we agree that the massive block with the blue portal is not moving? So, imagine we are standing right in front of it when it happens - what happens exactly? How do the people appear?
The people appear because the orange portal is moving towards them, the people then, like through a moving door, just pop out the other side.
It’s a door way through space, not a momentum giving portal.
Can you not see the orange portal moving? They don’t jump through it, this carrying their own momentum through. They are stationary through it so coming out they will also be stationary
Of course I see the orange portal moving. So we agree the orange portal is moving, the blue is stationary.
So, when you’re saying “the people just pop out the other side”. What does that mean? Do they pop out one by one? So one moment, no one is there, the next moment one person spawns and after that the third person spawns? Or do they spawn altogether? Or does each person come from the portal centimeter by centimeter, atom by atom - pushing through the portal?
That’s not what I mean. Let’s just look at one person: the person will not just appear as a whole at the blue portal, right? First there will be, I don’t know, the left arm, then the left side of the torso, the middle part… and so on. That’s what I meant with centimeter by centimeter, atom by atom - pushing through the portal. Would you agree?
At least that’s how it’s in the game. It’s not that you are touching one portal, despawn and appear at the other portal, right?
Yeah they kinda lose ground under them as the portal goes through them, they aren’t pushed, they are moved through space. No additional force or momentum is ever applied.
In the game you aren’t pushed through ever, you walk through or fall through them. You appear at the other side of the door.
So, you say, they are moving without speed. Which could only mean when one person touches the portal in one millisecond, his complete body just disappears completely from the rails and in the same millisecond his body appears behind the other portal.
That’s not how portals in the game work. That’s rather how the transporter in Star Trek works.

Yes the blue portal isn’t moving

It’s on a slant so they will just fall down and yes on top of each other one by one

Yes. And you said it correctly: they are moved through space. Now tell me: at which speed are they moved through space?
No speed at all, the portal doesn’t give or create energy and they were stationary as they passed through
So, you say, they are moving without speed. Which could only mean when one person touches the portal in one millisecond, his complete body just disappears completely from the rails and in the same millisecond his body appears behind the other portal.
