Knight Physically Teleports to Guards, Can See Survivors, & Can Start Chases When Summoning
SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE:
When The Knight spawns a Guard, his body will disappear from his original location as he physically teleports to the Guard's spawn location.
While summoning, The Knight can even briefly see Survivors and Scratch Marks (even though both of these are supposed to be invisible to him) and can even start a chase from across the map by doing this, triggering chase perks like Predator or STBFL.
This allows Knight to remotely scout around for Survivors or where they've been, reveal their whereabouts even if the Guard doesn't detect anybody, and trigger chase perks from across the map.
This is noticeable and impactful from both Survivor PoV and Killer PoV. Often the Terror Radius will accompany the body teleporting.
PLATFORM:
PC (Steam)
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED:
- Play as Survivor versus a Knight
- Observe Knight draw a Patrol Path
- When Guard is to be Summoned, the Knight's body will teleport away from his original location, briefly flash at the Guard Summon location, and then return to his original location.
OR
- Play as Knight
- Begin drawing a patrol path
- Summon a Guard either in front of a Survivor, or where they've been running.
- For a brief split second, between the time the "Summon" button is pressed and the time it takes for the camera to fade-transition back to The Knight's original location, you will be able to see Scratch Marks and Survivors, or even start a chase if you're moving while summoning.
VIDEO:
Survivor PoV:
(in this vid, my friend playing Knight can see me when the Jailer is spawned and my camera is even moved inside of him because of this.)
Killer PoV:
In this video, I demonstrate a variety of scenarios that this bug manifests in.
I demonstrate how I can begin chases from across the map while summoning Guards,
I demonstrate how I can see Survivors after I've told a Guard to summon,
and I demonstrate how I can see Scratch Marks after I've told a Guard to summon.
