Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Hit validation

So how exactly does hit validation work? Does it wait for the killer's client to say that they got a hit, and then check to measure the distance between the killer and the survivor when they receive that message? Isn't that going to be a little weak, since a killer can just swing and then get close to the survivor?

Or, does the server keep a timer, and check to see what positions registered at the specific point in time at which the client says they got a hit?
