Hatches Opening while Exit Gates are powered
The conditions for a Hatch's spawns are as follows, excerpt from the wiki.
The Hatch will become visible ("spawn") whenever the number of fully repaired Generators IconHelpLoading generators.png exceeds the number of living Survivors by 1. This is true for the following scenarios:
- Four Survivors: 5 fully repaired Generators / Exit Gates are powered
- Three Survivors: 4 fully repaired Generators / 1 Generator left
- Two Survivors: 3 fully repaired Generators / 2 Generators left
- One Survivor: 2 fully repaired Generators / 3 Generators left
Why does a hatch have to spawn - let alone, open - when the Exit Gates are powered?
The wording that comes from the Wiki, also, states 'living Survivors'. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty sure escaped Survivors count as 'living' Survivors.
The Hatch, regardless, opens when there is one Survivor left in the game, whether the rest fled through the Exit Gates or died at the Hook.
In every game that I have played as the Killer, however, this comes at an annoying consequence; One Survivor, in nearly every game I have played as the Killer, will always escape through the Hatch instead of the Exit Gates.
Twice, lone Survivors have held my game hostage for an exorbitant amount of time as they camp the Hatch while the Exit Gates are open until I come near them.
But I'm not complaining about players doing that. I'm more concerned with the fact that when the Exit Gates are powered and opened, the Hatch opens to give the last Survivor an opportunity to exit through an alternate path in the middle of the map besides the two open gates.
The Hatch should not open if any one other Survivor has escaped through the Exit Gates. The Wiki itself clearly states living Survivors, and escaped Survivors are evidently living.
