Generator tapping update?

In 2019 a post received a Dev response @Peanits in which Generator tapping without breaking run/look animation was taking place. It was not being looked into at the time. Any update if this issue is being looking into by the team?

Generator "tapping" isn't the issue, but rather the instant tap not providing a visual cue to the other players in the match. Ran into the issue twice the past week in which a survivor runs close by the generator in full view and regression began without their character looking at the object.

    Tapping a generator freezes the survivor in place for a second, what more than likely happened was a latency thing where the other player didn't see the animation happening.

    I think they should change it slightly to get it to stop regressing they should fix the gen for just 1 full second or 2. Just enough so they can't just cancel the regress while they're in a chase.

    they should make a perk that when you kick a gen its blocked off for like 10 seconds

    Takes an hour for the killer to pound a generator with his foot to make little difference to the gen.

    A survivor being chased races by an a quick millisecond tap it is fixed... yup, no problem with generator tap... perhaps I shouldn't joke about an hour.
