Hello there. Thanks for your feedback. Could you be more specific? Player is not able to throw grenades before starting timer. Or I was not able to reproduce it. Do you mean timer of first round or timer from next rounds?

During this timer.
You are correct the default key G is blocked.
I have grenades bound to mouse button 4 and can throw them that way.

They just locked some keys' inputs instead of actions ? If so, this is a big hole for people with bad intentions and maybe a GL attachment.

This is going way more deep than just being able to throw something.

Sometimes its even possible to shoot before the countdown timer starts (i even saw a guy running already starting to run.... https://youtu.be/SFkj6qQdn48?t=7), the script that's preventing that is not activating fast enough on some cases. You need to ensure that the script that's locking the actions is active before the player spawns and gets control over his Character.

It seems that the keyboard inputs are blocked, but the mouse inputs go through.
You can bind any action to your mouse buttons and then preform the action during the count down.

I finally found it. Thank you very much.
But I was not able to reproduce any other action by that way, only throwing grenades.

Hi Yoshi_E, could you provide us more info about that? Was that guy one of your teammate respawned right in that round? Couldn´t it be remaining bugged player from last round?

  1. He is a Teammate
  2. He spawned with the correct uniform and weapon
  3. He spawned at round start
  4. He was able to start running before the countdown ended.

Though to be honest I only saw this occurring once, maybe just bad luck? :D
Also if you bind W (move forward) to your mouse you can move during the countdown, but you are getting teleported back to your spawn location.

It seems that the keyboard inputs are blocked, but the mouse inputs go through.
You can bind any action to your mouse buttons and then preform the action during the count down.

Seems to be true, yes

I must totally agree. This problem should be fixed by next update.
Thanks for your reporting guys :).

I have seen it more then once. I have even seen you Yoshi run off early (at least on my screen).
But I do not have much more info then that yet...
