'''Clipping''' is a collision-related [[glitches|glitch]] that allows a fast-moving object to pass right through another object. The glitch is common in many games, including the [[Halo universe|Halo Trilogy]], and its name is likely derived from the term, "[[Wikipedia:Noclip mode|noclip]]". | '''Clipping''' is a collision-related [[glitches|glitch]] that allows a fast-moving object to pass right through another object.

The flaw, though, is that if an object moves extremely fast, then there may not be any frames of animation where it actually intersects a wall. On one frame of animation, it would be on one side of the wall; on the next frame of animation, it would be on the other side. Most collision detection engines do not check for movement between frames, so such an error would not be corrected, and the fast-moving object would continue its movement. | The flaw, though, is that if an object moves extremely fast, then there may not be any frames of animation where it actually intersects a wall.

''[[Halo 3]]'' 's [[Panoramic camera mode|Pan Cam]], for example, can be used to clip through [[Invisible Walls|invisible walls]] in [[Theater]], but only after it is accelerated to at least fifty thousand times the normal speed. | ||
