Possible warp glitch during the Ganton gym phone call
8 years ago
New South Wales, Australia

I was playing through not exactly for a speed run but just to get to the end game fairly quickly and ended up dying just before the call for the Ganton gym, maybe it's an odd glitch but if u pick up the phone call whilst the death tutorial is active when u first die it teleports u to the gym.

I picked it up too early I think so it put me back at the hospital when the text came back, but for those few seconds I could run around and got halfway to stealing a car. So I guess this could be something of a warp speed up but just 10 of so seconds :p

I'm not gonna test it because I just don't want to :p but it might work if u answer the call on the last text box explaining the death tutorial :p hf if this somehow is applicable :p soz if its been found already

This was found back when we used the SDA forums. Found and tested by "any", explained by Lighnat0r.

You can stay at the gym (read the quote)

It is slower than just driving in any% but used in 100% to warp after Courier since there you can use the time you wait for the call to spray tags.

Explanation quote: [QUOTE]The reason the glitch works is because when taking the phone call, the game stores your position and then teleports you to the gym for the duration of the phone call. After the phone call ends you get teleported back to the stored position. However, while you are in that specific area (1459.5<X<1700.0 and -1765.5<Y<-1516.5, see http://i.imgur.com/iTWjPPz.png), the game is already storing your position every frame. Because of this, the game will store your position once more AFTER teleporting, so when the game teleports you back, you will end up at the gym. This area is the only one where it works like this, the only other time your position is saved is during missions or when entering a shop marker (i.e. tattoo shop, food, barber, clothing) but they are obviously not available concurrent with the phone call.[/QUOTE]
