I don’t think anyone would know for sure. Just spam crouch and hope for the best.

So I’ve done a bit of research on ceoob and a lot of testing and I’m pretty sure it’s not possible to actually go oob with it since the engine sees oob as solid in terms of tracerays (that’s why you can’t uncrouch while oob) and the game uses tracerays to test if the area you would be “popped” to is non-solid.
