The moving platform is an object on The Airship in Gap Room.
Overview[]
The moving platform is a gray, metal platform held up by a small propeller. There is yellow railing around the edges. Players can use the moving platform if close enough to ride on it. Only one player may be on the moving platform at a time. When players are on a moving platform, they are unable to move or open their personal map.
Trivia[]
- The moving platform is the second new transportation method announced for The Airship, the first being ladders.[1]
- If a Crewmate is killed right before they board the platform, their dead body will stay put and float in mid air, making it unable to be reported.
- If a Crewmate is killed as soon as they use the moving platform, their ghost will ride it while their dead body stays behind.
- This is the only situation where a ghost can ride the moving platform.
- If an emergency meeting is called when a player is on the moving platform, the platform will stay in mid-air until someone uses it again.
- When asked about the official name for the moving platform, Victoria Tran responded that her personal favorite suggestion for it is "fuhfuhfuh".[2]
- The moving platform sound is a reference to Sonic the Hedgehog, which features a character named Miles "Tails" Prower who uses his tail to fly.
- This is also a reference to the Infiltrating the Airship game in the Henry Stickmin series, where Henry Stickmin uses the help of the robot helper to reach the other side of the gap in the engine room.
- The moving platform has no direct effect on pets. Instead, pets continue running on the moving platform to keep up with the player.
- If the player is riding on the moving platform in Practice and the game resets due to a critical Sabotage running out of time, they will glitch outside the map. [needs testing]
- In Hide n Seek, the moving platform appears in the center with a crossed-out sign as it is unusable.
