This technique can be performed on any edge or corner but requires precise positioning and timing. A detailed analysis by **twiikuu** explains the mechanics behind Corner Boosting: When a **Wall Jump** is executed: - The game sets the character's velocity to a fixed value. - The collision capsule's nearest point to the wall determines the launch angle. - Due to the capsule's curvature, the resulting angle can point **upwards** rather than sideways, generating extreme vertical momentum. {{::universaltech:corner_boost_diagram_1.png?400|Corner Boost}} {{::universaltech:corner_boost_diagram_2.png?400|Normal Wall Jump}} ^ **Key** | |■ Light Blue: Collision capsule | |■ Red: Absolute velocity | |■ Green: Sideways velocity | |■ Orange: Wall push | |■ Purple: Final velocity | Corner Boosting has several practical uses: * **Height Advantage** – Gain elevation to access high ground or evade enemies. * **Vision Control** – Peek over obstacles (e.g., bridges, barrels) for better sightlines. * **Ability Synergy** – Chain with abilities that benefit from extra height (e.g., Bebop’s Hook). While Corner Boosting works on most edges, curved surfaces provide the most consistent results. Some notable objects include: * Golden Idol Statue * Stone Fencing * Hotdog Stand * Hogsworth’s Truck There are some setups to get consistent Corner Boosts at certain spots. They are not mandatory; you can do corner boosts on any curved surface.
