Cool locations

Some roads are move driveable than others. It depends on a lot of things; especially on residual car meshes, engine behavior, internet speed, skill, and luck.

If you fall thru the floor you can press K and fly up (bump hard against the road upwards from different angles).

The URL includes the current location so you can copy it and open again.

The octant loader behavior is a tradeoff for a semi-acceptable streaming when the car is driving fast and against visual obstructions and mush (an illusion almost). There are, however, lots of things that could still be fixed/optimized (especially the holes from the stencil buffer and so on, the concurrency, collision etc etc.); one could spend much more time on this.
