==Description==
Moving Platforms are used to assist [[Player|the player]] from getting to one area from another. The platforms can move in a variety of directions and ways. If the platform is not moving in such a way that it creates a slope, the player on the moving platform will stay in the relative area if they are directly on the platform, though will be in the general area in the air when they jump (i.e. they risk falling off if they are too close to the edge or if the platform moves very quickly), and swimming on the wall will have their directional input be relative to the direction they are as if it were a normal wall. However, if the platform moves such that it creates a slope, the player will start sliding down if they are standing. Players will be affected by gravity while they are swimming on a sloped surface, though ultimately still be able to swim as long as they are not upside-down, in which they will fall.

==Usage==
Moving platforms are used to assist the player in getting to one area from another. The platforms can move in a variety of directions, as well as in different ways. If the platform does not tilt, the movement of the player on the platform is relative to the platform. However, when jumping, the player's movement is relative to the stationary ground, which may lead to the player falling off the moving platform if they are near the edge or do not anticipate the platform's movement. When swimming on a wall that is part of a moving platform, the player's directional input is relative to the direction they are swimming as if it were a normal wall. If the platform tilts and creates a steep slope, a player in humanoid form will fall down. If the player is swimming, they will stay on the platform as long as they are not upside down, which will cause them to fall.

Moving platforms are a type of platform in the Splatoon series. They are found in Octo Valley, Octo Canyon, the Octo Expansion, Return of the Mammalians, and Shifty Station.

Description

Moving platforms are platforms able to move without the use of a propeller. These platforms can be made of many materials, such as typical metal, non-inkable blocks, or temporary stage-setup blocks (used in many ranked modes). These platforms are usually constructed by the Octarians. Marina also sometimes includes them in the Shifty Stations she creates for Splatfests. Similar unnatural platforms are invisible walls/floors, floating pieces of land, or floating propeller platforms.

Usage

Moving platforms are used to assist the player in getting to one area from another. The platforms can move in a variety of directions, as well as in different ways. If the platform does not tilt, the movement of the player on the platform is relative to the platform. However, when jumping, the player's movement is relative to the stationary ground, which may lead to the player falling off the moving platform if they are near the edge or do not anticipate the platform's movement. When swimming on a wall that is part of a moving platform, the player's directional input is relative to the direction they are swimming as if it were a normal wall. If the platform tilts and creates a steep slope, a player in humanoid form will fall down. If the player is swimming, they will stay on the platform as long as they are not upside down, which will cause them to fall.
