NRaas:

Warping while prone has long been a bane of Riflemen. You run up to a critter, you go prone to improve your accuracy...and then you teleport back to where you were 5 seconds previously (and, in the case of Riflemen, almost always back out of range).

This has long been a known bug, and it affects mainly Riflemen, since we're the ones most likely to go prone in combat.

In comparing notes, we seem to have isolated the only factor common to all people who have this problem: Master Scout and Novice Ranger.

If you have a spare couple of minutes, could you take a look at the following thread?

At first it's just a bunch of us Rifle types bitching about the bug. As the thread progresses, it becomes clear that there's SOMETHING involving either Master Scout or Novice Ranger (Probably something to do with Terrain Negotiation) that causes this bug.

If you could bring this up to the Devs in the Correspondents forum, perhaps we can finally make some progress in getting this fixed. (We Rifle types would do it, but we don't have a correspondent at the moment.)

Thanks.

Yes this issue was already brought to my attention.

• Iadded an item to the bottom of the Bugs listing regarding this issue in the last State list.

Posture Change issuessound like a programming error that has evaded detection for a very long time.

The developers are aware of the issue, but I have heard nothing regarding any possible fixes.

Oops! Well, just call me Mr. Redundant, then.

Thanks for looking into it.
