Xbox - Utility Flashlight bug
Played as Elodie using a Utility Flashlight with a Low amp filament + Long life battery. Played on the Forsaken Boneyard against Sadako. Whenever i tried to use the flashlight near the killer, the flashlight would bug out and face the ground or glitch around the screen. I tried to use the flash light to stun at a pallette and the issue occured. Tried to get a flash light save very close to the killer and that also made the light underneath me, when i tried to move the flashlight it didnt work. I would say that the flashlight wasnt working when i was in a 10 meter distance as i tried running up to the killer to flash and still the errors occured. When the killer wasnt present the problem went away.
I couldnt attach any images/ videos but will add to this thread if it happens in my next few matches.

This is happening on PS4 as well. It happened with the Event flashlights as well as the Utility Flashlight. The only add ons i've been using are combinations of the Odd Bulb, the Focus Lens, and all the batteries. Flashlights would automatically aim down, I couldn't blind the killer.
It even happened during a game where Killer was AFK, couldn't even get free blinds haha

Does anyone have any video examples of this happening?

Heya, so i had this issue again today, i couldnt upload it directly from the snip i took from xbox as i have a chrome book, so i created an Imgur link. The first time i clicked the flash light it faced downwards. Then i had to move my character/hold the flashlight button to get it to appear. I also had problems using the flashlight away from the killer with it facing downwards but was unable to get a clip of that in time.
