Post subject:  A fun bug I wish made a feature from

I had fun with this bug for a while, and now I've decided to share it so others will know, too. I believe it would have been found anyway.
In short: if you place a metal panel on a floor gorizontally, then place a small box over it (preferably in the center), jump on a box, grab the panel from above and press space - you'll fly at really high speed. Direction and duration of flight depends on your position and angle of grab, as panel may slip from your hands or a box from below your feet, and you'll fall down. I have managed to literally "crawl" directly under the ceiling with small degrees of incline, and on a map with 0 gravity it actually turns into a megaspeed booster, which is hard to control, but even if you can do it for a couple of seconds, you'll cover great distance. That bug was in first alpha of Viscera, and still exists in 0.14.
I would really like if we would get "legitimate" mechanism (like flying platform of sorts) which use this hole in unreal engine's physics (yeah, that's not that much about code being written funny, but the physics engine itself), and/or, at least, we can use this to get some sort of easter egg on one of the (future) maps, and use this feature/bug as in insider reference of sorts.

Have fun and a nice day, everyone.
