Wow, I want to see how it goes. :)

I always thought the Core Existed in both the Edge and the center. Cause the Mover in Sub 6 was moving towards the guns, but it seemed outwards. Plus I always thought the location Sanctuary was the double existence with the Archway Portal. Creating the double location paradox.

Thats a really interesting observation, possible pointing to a non euclidean model of the universe
In fact that would make sense if at the end when Mur and Liz are talking and being shot at, but the bullets never reached them, In a non euclidean universe they could be residing at the core and thus where ever they shot from would be an infinite distance away from them.

hold up im going to research alternative universe models and start theorizing now.

As far as non-Euclidean models, the spherical model must be non-Euclidean. There are locations that match up right next to each other via Coordinate 3 in a straight line.

613-614 (certainly)
552-553 (almost certainly)
550-551 (plausible)

If these locations are right next to each other, then coordinate 3 would have to be the radius. And that means from one radius to the next, gravitational forces could change.

(I would also like to point out that the pipe between 462 and 551 does not necessarily have to go through one adjacent wall)

How would gravity work here? From 613-614's perspective the radial direction is left-right, and gravity goes up-down, so gravity can't point in the radial direction.

Unless the whole system was revolving at such a high speed that centrifugal force is enough to hold you to the "Ground"

Trust me im an expert I had to google centripetal vs centrifugal

I thought of that too, but the centrifugal force is also radial... :/

EDIT: Though... now that I think, there's another force that arises if the ball's rotation is accelerating, and it points in the right direction. But acceleration doesn't look as natural.

Or maybe gravity is just different between different sectors of the whole thing. (I mean, we can't say gravity works the same way if we have locations like 411)

Yeah, most likely that's the case.
