Time Travel

Time Travel is the sixth powerup in the powerups of Fortress Blast. It turns the player invisible, super fast, and in third person for 3 seconds, but they cannot attack. This is meant to be used to get past difficult obstacles, but many players use it as an escape method since it does not have any preview before. Some powerups such as Blast may remove Time Travel when used.

Development Information
Through m_flMaxspeed, the player's speed is increased to 520 HU/s (the maximum speed on ground). The player is also given condition 66 (TFCond_StealthedUserBuffFade). The player is blocked from attacking using the netprops m_flNextPrimaryAttack and m_flNextSecondaryAttack and by blocking the IN_ATTACK button. The former is preferred due to the latter having the blocked action delayed by ping amounts, but only having the former makes the sapper usable during time travel, which is why two different attack-blocking methods are employed.
