Outland Exploration Log-NO.6

In order to expand the scope of exploration and research into the Outland, it is necessary to have a mechanism that enables us to freely move between the two realms. Therefore, The R.D. Company has started to develop a wormhole facility capable of stable teleportation.



Early testing: Reusable and Disposable "Small teleportation device-Prototype"
In the early stage of research and development, small vehicles with teleportation functions developed by technicians carried and transported a small amount of data, apparatus and equipment, traveled between the two realms, and served as pioneers in the development parameters and early-stage transportation testing. After the completion of the CODE 2040 project, such small devices have successfully retired and become non-public archived materials. Now the "large wormhole device" completed in the later stage of development will be responsible for materials and personnel transportation.



Currently in operation: large "stable collective teleportation station" wormhole device
"Large area of effect, so that multiple people, multiple objects and large objects can be teleported at the same time." This is the design focus of this large wormhole device, but because they are more time-consuming, energy-consuming, safe and larger-scale construction, they were not completed until the later stages of the project.



At present, one is built in both the Outland and Earth, to carry out communication between the two realms. Because the appearance of the device is in the shape of a tower, it is also referred to as a teleportation tower inside R.D.

Exploration - experimental exploration

Atmospheric composition of The Outside
  
Due to the discovery of the Tunnel the research park began to increase and expand its scale, continuing its research on the "other side (The Outside)" and SOMA. At this stage, it is still mainly done by sending drones and collecting information.
  
📍The atmospheric composition of the Outside is almost the same as that of the human world. Except that there is no "oxygen".

📍The compound in its place is the "SOMA" gas.
◆At the right concentration, organisms from the human world can breathe it instead of oxygen.
◆But when the concentration is too high, it can be fatal.
◆Certain time periods and certain areas may suddenly cause the concentration to rise abnormally, and special attention is required.


  
However, if gas collected from the Outside by the drone returns to the human world, it will trigger a chain reaction of SOMA: sometimes it will explode, and sometimes it will rapidly decompose and dissipate.



Map location data creation

In response to the exploration of the Outside, R.D. Corporation developed the first version of the "S.M.A.P." map system, which gradually constructed the corresponding area and positioning data by the movement of the exploration device. At this time, I found that:
  
📍This "Outside" has a similar environment to the corresponding geographical position of Taiwan.
📍But there are differences, there are even environmental composition that originate from different geographical locations that are now connected together.
📍There are also Taiwanese buildings from various time periods
📍Seemingly as an environmental pattern caused by multiple restructuring
📍The detector does not have visual on any animals, but there are natural sounds and plants coming from all sides.



The unmanned exploration drones will sometimes be damaged and lost after experiencing an impact force from an unknown source.

The discovery of a world on the other side – The Outside

ShueiNanDong 13-Layer Controlled Research Park

Under the cooperation of our government and allies, along with the R.D. Corporation, the relevant research parks were built around the 13-Layer Remains area and access to the general public was regulated.



The SOMA state in the abandoned mine (SOMA is exposed from underground, and there is no correlation in the subsequent rock layers). The researchers speculate that this may be a "Singularity", which is when our existing environment come into contact with an unknown domain and results in the manifestation of an anomaly.



At the same time, in the process of studying SOMA, when the material was tested with high voltage, a short and small space tunnel was unexpectedly generated, and when examined by scanning equipment, the other world can actually be seen from within.

This discovery makes researchers who are stuck in a bottleneck looking for the source of SOMA pay great attention. The higher ups immediately instructed to dedicate a portion of "SOMA" into researching the Tunnel. Once it is stable, it can be accessed using a drone to conduct an expendable exploration.



Thus, the other world that was discovered is named "The Outside"。

Rosetta Dimension Corporation



The government’s strong helping hand following the Sky Light of Unknown Source - Rosetta Dimension Corporation (hereinafter referred to as R.D. Corporation).
Established in Taiwan, R.D. Corporation is a well-known multinational enterprise whose main business is in the "biotechnology" field. As its businesses expanded, it gradually extended its operations towards other fields of development.
During Sky Light incident, the location of R.D. Corporation’s research facilities, in addition to their expertise in the field, is what prompted the company to swiftly offer support to the government in the form of manpower, material resources, search & rescue assistance.
Working in close collaboration, the government and R.D. Corporation conducted relevant research on recent events.



Discovery of SOMA
Following Sky Light incident, the government worked alongside R.D. Corporation and relevant industry-academic research centers in conducting investigations of the site and discovered an unknown element of mysterious origins in the depths of an abandoned mining pit at the 13-Layer Remains. Not only is it an entirely novel substance but holds immense economic potential. With properly used and developed, it can bring about immense changes to the world. Researchers named it SOMA.
  
Currently known features of SOMA include:
● Extremely high energy conversion ratio
● Functions as a superconductor or insulator under different conditions and environments
● Collected crystals are highly sublimable
● Inhaling excessive concentrations of SOMA gas can have fatal effects
  
However, SOMA possesses peculiar difficulties when it comes to its preservation – It gradually disintegrates and dissipates within 7 days. As the revealed quantity found at the 13-Layer Remains is low, subsequent chances of development and use are less than optimistic.

It's privilege to be invited by #TGDF to share and communicate.

The team is grateful to the cloud technology architect Edward Chuang who is responsible for the Google Cloud game industry.

He invited our program technical director to the Taipei Game Developers Forum to share the process of optimizing game technology and games making.

We will work hard and hoping to bring the best gaming experience to all players.
