W...What just happened?

[Tanuki Tales]

I'm uploading a screenshot for this, but we were driving close to a Pop-n-pills in the desert biome when we saw a random explosion, followed by blocks flying in the air and now there's massive sinkholes in the parking lot.

Ok, so it turns out there are actually two holes and the first one is deeper (it's the second screenshot).

Sounds like some glitch triggered a car or two to explode.

Probably spitters hitting cars while trying to hit wildlife? IDK but it happens. There's also landmines could have exploded a car too

Some POIs now have trigger scripts (another is the farm with the car that drove into the propane tank), and if that pop-n-pills is the location I am thinking of, there is a methlab? or something similar in the basement/underground.

I noticed one of those. Do you know, or is there documentation for how these are implemented?

Ok... This is a glitch that happened a lot on the previous version, and one of the reasons why they removed the biome. I don't know if you remember, but in previous versions, you would see a lot of holes (not as big as this one) in the street, mostly on the war biome. I remember seeing a lot of those holes on the street, and I had to dodge them to keep the speed pace.

This seems to be that glitch, and it seems a car spawned on top of that hole, and since there's no ground, the car fell to the ground, exploded, and opened a bigger hole.

There are a lot of things that explode in the game, some can explode by itself due to a bug, or a zombie can trigger it... It happens.

We've yet to have this happen and we've set up shop in that farm.

Well, our base is in the farthest corn field by the bridge and river, while I'm slowly converting their fenced in cornfield into my own personal farm.

I've never seen this, but I have seen those holes and can easily imagine it happening as you describe if a car were to generate above one, it would fall into the hole when the chunk loads! Does that happen in A20 though? I haven't seen the holes in the street like we got before, other than some holes/pits that were intentional parts of a poi (such as road work site.)

I do hear random explosions from time to time, I just figure it's zombies walking over a mine or something.
