What a revelation, OP. I don't think anyone has really thought of it that way before.

Yeah?

Quick, make a game where destroying yourself by teleporting makes an explosion and the cloning yourself sucks up/distorts things

That's actually a cool mechanic. Teleport can only used by one character at a time. This would make raids so much more tense. If shit hits the fan, you can't all cheese it at once.

The idea of this is the reason why it would be much better to just kill off your clone. Because you'd have the same mindset towards everything. You will agree and disagree about everything. You ca never 1up your clone and he can never 1up you.
>>
>>342792431
That's the only logical way teleportation would work in the real world, but that's not video game teleportation, you oaf. In video games science isn't a factor, so the player object simply skips from one part of the map to the other, it is not removed and recreated.
>>
>>342801209
Then how will i kill him, when we come to the same conclusion? We'd essentially mimic each other in the planning and the action and we'd either both die, come to a stalemate drop the whole thing, or one lucks out a third variable is present, though the more i think about it the more the latter wont happen, as im the kinda guy who over thinks everything to the point its annoying.
>>
>>342801209
Your experiences would eventually set you apart and you'd become different people with slightly different tastes and even different skill levels at the video games.
>>
this would be a waste of memory to garbage collect the original character and instantiate a new one, so in video games, teleportation is technically really teleportation, since all that's changed is the position of the character.

You two would be in separate places.
It'd be the one who's quicker.
The other who could be in another place where it's not suit fit to react where you would be.
Or hell maybe you got fucked and a train stopped you, and the clone has the upper hand.
Mind is the same yes, but taking reality and random happenings take in account.
The better one would be the one in the right place.
Now if you were so 1:1 you'd be in the same place.
But what if there was another you and you didn't want that you to be in that place, so you elude but they'd elude to.
That's where it gets crazy.
>>
>>342802913
Identical twins aren't on the same page as clones by miles anon

You and your twin are still two people who grew up experiencing different things

Your clone is you with a 100% accurate replica of your memories, tastes and etc up until the cloning moment. Divergences might appear as you two go on about your lives, but a clone will always have your EXACT personality
>>
>>342803398
thats why when my wife had two identical twin sons, we killed one of them
>>
>>342802996
How can you be 100% sure the other you isn't plotting to kill you?
Will you take chances?
If not then you should plot to kill him first.
>>
>>342803398
I agree with your clones and twins thing.
But a split second difference between you and a clone can change the entire lives cuz they'd be a different entity taking a different life from yours.
Same personality, but now you didn't live what happened to your clone.
Different lives regardless.

Those are teleporters too. If you watch a killcam of xsomeone who killed you and then goes up, say on Hainan (spelling?) the pc literally stays in the car on the first floor while the doors close and then the boxcar plays an animation and a soft whrr sound and then pops you up in an identical box at the top and opens the doors.

Lazy shits

nice try but ive been eating my own semen from child. so at least some of the atoms are the same

What about teleportation by moving your legs?

>>342808759

Your character is not the same every time you reload, just a clone made of code
>>
>>342808826
Not true in Fallout 3 and 4. This is used for some exploits.
>>
>>342808826
how do you know you're not reloaded every time you fall asleep irl?
>>
>>342808947

Elaborate
>>
>>342808759
When you fast travel you're actually changing to the viewpoint of another character that looks extremely similar to your previous character and happens to have the same name and equipment as you
>>
>>342809073
Fallout 3 has an exploit where reloading the game just as you break your legs boosts your speed by how much breaking your legs would slow you down.
Fallout 4 has an exploit where reloading a save can fail to update multiple stats and triggers, including mission status and inventory.

So basically all player characters are the same character. At least as long as you don't start a new game or quit the game.

What if for a second after the cloning the only thing you saw was yourself, how would our brain react?

Also, wouldn't any interaction outside of with yourself make the clone a separate entity since they did not receive the same feedback?
