Knife throw bug
« on: February 04, 2014, 04:24:48 am »
Don't know if it's a bug or not, but it works only in this version. Maybe it's something that is connected to WM, don't yet worth reporting.

When you are in any kind of object(e.g. box), you can't stab an enemy there, but if you throw in the object, you kill an enemy.
This wasn't like that in previous versions.

Thank you.

Whoops, wrong thread, please move this to Need Help? Report Bugs section.

That's new to me.
Maybe the knife shouldn't hit the colder when stabbing , but in flight it should  ???
Dunno isn't really new to me have to try it  [pigtail]

It kinda seams like it should be that way, since if you're stabbing you are inside the box/collider, but you should be able to hide from bullets behind a crate.

It kinda breaks the logic if you can't stab a person in a box..
I forgot to mention that both you and enemy have to be IN a object.

to be clear, you mean:
when you stand in collider(with box graphic) you cant kill other player using knife
but
when you both stand in collider and you throw knife you kill other player?

if yes, colliders are normally set to small one so probably when you stand on it its register this collider but when you throw knife it bypasses it because its to low comparing to trajectory of knife...  [first thought about it]

You can kill using knife but only if you throw inside the collider and enemy is in there. However, you can't stab enemy, starting from 1.6.5 .
At start, I thought it's an issue with WM.
Is reporting at Mantis still essential?

It would be more clear if you show us screenshot of map when you encounter this problem.
Maybe as I said you just found collider that is lower than trajectory of knife throw, or its just modified map... or some technical aspect that dev should inspect, but they need more accurate data to check it, so demo, screenshot and map specification would be nice :]

Got it. It's not really hard to reproduce.
