(Yellow) Toolbox maintaining increased speed after being emptied

in Bug Reporting

I've only have it happen once so far, as I think it's a bit too much of an exploit to reproduce at the moment. But essentially after the toolbox is empty, the charge rate doesnt change.

It doesnt affect any other generators, and I am assuming that letting go of the generator removes it too, but since I havent had time to experiment it and test it out in private matches(as, certain toolboxes are gamechangingly fast for public matches), I cannot confirm if it's just the yellow toolbox or all toolboxes.


Additional info:

There were no addons, there was a teammate helping me before leaving and the toolbox was almost empty when I started using it on the generator.

    The full bug, turns out there was a skillcheck at the 0th charge that seemed to reset the speed.


    If I had to guess, my assumption would be that the triggered skillcheck was from the toolbox, so the game decided the toolbox must have still been valid for use, even though it had 0 charges, took another charge, giving it -1 charges and thus continued on infinitely. If that is the case, I have the (un)luckiest skillcheck in the history of DBD, as I havent been able to reproduce it in a private match yet.
