[PC] (Skull Merchant) Survivor Gaining "Lock On" Regardless Of The Laser Positioning Or Condition.
Description of the Issue:
"Looking directly at a Survivor during an EXTREMELY slim window when they are inside a drone's radius, looking at it and moving, will give them a stack regardless of the beams' location if you time and aim it perfectly." (As explained by Pixel Bush.)
Keep in mind this means the lasers from the Drones can apply Lock On without even needing the correct positioning, through walls (results vary from what Ive heard), and if the Survivor is crouched/standing still.
