Either that, or the in-game image of the Ragnarok can pass through the image of the barrier as it is represented on the World Map.Originally Posted by Jesse1
The World Map cannot be treated as a literal representation of what's there. If you believed everything you saw on the World Map, then you'd have to believe that Squall is taller than most buildings, and a vehicle can be larger than a village.
The fact that the Ragnarok appears to go through the barrier is, to me, obviously just a convenience. The barrier, if it was shown to scale, would be absolutely miniscule - so no point wasting time and patience by making the player ascend every time they go into Esthar. Of course, some people point out that you can't fly through mountains. However, mountains are far larger than the barrier, to the extent that they actually matter from a navigational point of view. The barrier, on the other hand, is at most 10-15 meters high, so the Ragnarok would have to be flying pretty darn low to actually hit it.
Anyone else noticed that, if you fly or "park" near a forest, some of the trees can pass through the Ragnarok? Same explanation, I think.[q=Future Esthar]The missiles were said to hit their targets with astounding accuracy even without the use of radio waves.
How can this be?
Itīs simple.
When you upload the coordinates on the missile base you are just passing the information of the program to the internal memory of the missiles.
These information control their movements as what happens with computorized robots. [/q]This is hardly a totally confidential secret or anything. When the missiles are heading toward Balamb, they look around with mechanical "eyes" - cameras that scan the landscape to look for the target.
