    Well in the portal games I don’t think portals have ever moved

    But the way I see it the “distance” you travel through the portal is the same. You don’t go through a tunnel it’s instantaneous. But one portal is moving so I think just and endpoint is moving

    I’m thinking of it like a normal door

    If a run through a door I will inherit my momentum like in the portal games

    But if a door is quickly coming at me and I’m standing still the frame just goes around me I’m still

      Yeah but I don’t think the portals can distinguish relative speed, and so it would just see you moving through the portal at 60 mph or whatever and shoot you out at 60 mph at the same angle relative to the portal.

      There is ONE case of portals moving and it was specially coded because you’re right that they usually don’t.
