When proceeding through these levels normally, important NPCs, such as Johnson and the Arbiter, are deleted from and re-added to the levels several times | This glitch prevents the removal of a NPC because when alive they have an instance of their name or something relevant to their name. But when this NPC dies their instance is no longer their name, it becomes something like ''Dead'' or ''Ragdoll''. The game's code is set to remove the instance of the characters name, not ''Dead'' or ''Ragdoll''. Thus alowing players to glitch NPC's past cutscenes or loading sequences. | ||
When proceeding through these levels normally, important NPCs, such as Johnson and the Arbiter, are deleted from and re-added to the levels several times -- each time an important NPC gets separated from the player, they are removed. Killing such an NPC will prevent their removal. When the game re-adds him later, it does not check to see if the previous NPC was successfully removed. | |||
This, then, is the exact same glitch as the Three Johnsons glitch and the Two Arbiters glitch. | This, then, is the exact same glitch as the Three Johnsons glitch and the Two Arbiters glitch. |
