You could also have strange scenarios where the lever could be mid-air and a moving platform could briefly pass it allowing Jack, if he's quick, to pull the lever, and still get in a jump because of the quirk - hopefully to safety.
Who reported this one, Vern? This was something I had initially used in MM II, then pulled out.I wouldn't be surprised if one or two custom mansions used this quirk.Update: Even if they do, it doesn't matter since this only applies to built-in mansions.
Hmm, okay I guess you are right -- these two scenarios would be affected a well. Not just gold/silver blocks.
Why? Because the game does NOT teach players how to do this, so no one should ever be expected to do it. No built-in mansions should ever require it, or have an advantage to doing it. Therefore, it should not be allowed.
