Arrow Running Out Of Minecarts And Getting Stuck In RX Tech Mines



Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X70hZXzbNVM

At the minecart junction there are a total of three minecarts; the upper minecart, middle minecart and lower minecart. The middle minecart leads to the crowbar, which you use to obtain the lead acid battery. The lower minecart leads to the winch starter. The upper minecart leads to the yellow submersible, where you need the lead acid battery and winch starter in order to proceed. I wanted to see if it's possible to end up getting stuck in this level, and I was successful in my pursuit of getting stuck. I aboarded the middle minecart and took it to the area with the flamethrower guy and mutant. I proceeded to where the crowbar is but ignored it and simply pressed the button which opens the door separating the first secret and the second secret. I then returned to the minecart and used a glitch which took me to the area that the lower minecart takes you to. From there I jumped onto a slope that you're not meant to be able to reach on foot, and took it to the second secret. I exited through the door leading to the first secret and then to the junction room. I took the lower minecart to the area that I was at previously and went back onto the slope and to the second secret, back through the door and to the junction room. I was then in a position where the lower minecart and middle minecart were both absent from the junction room, and I didn't have the crowbar, winch starter or lead acid battery. The upper minecart was still present but going to the submersible wouldn't have accomplished anything since I didn't have any of the mandatory items. I couldn't obtain any of the mandatory items as the necessary minecarts weren't available. I was then stuck, with no way of completing the level. I guess you could call this a Tomb Raider epic fail.

Very impressive you managed to do that, however you did have to exploit a glitch in the engine so I still think that counts as a win for Core Design's playtesters.

Can you glitch your way back to either of the lower minecarts now that you're stuck?
