Crawling performance is poor
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I recently found myself with a broken leg and was forced to crawl around the town until I could fix it. Unfortunately, I found myself colliding with just about everything. When going through doors, the game appears to suck the player to the right, into the wall. I also had trouble fitting through gaps than while standing would not be a problem, but because of my elbows (maybe?) while on the ground I couldn't crawl through certain gaps. It also seems almost impossible to use stairs while climbing, up or down the player seems to tweak out. {F28845} {F28846}

I am having a similar "crawling" experience when crawling DOWN stairs, the character will not reach the next flat landing unless crawling sideways.

LOCATION: hospital in Elektro

EXPECTED: should be able to crawl straight up or down stairs without turning sideways.

ACTUAL: cannot proceed straight up or down stairs when in a crawling position.

Yeah, this needs to be fixed for sure. What I think would be nice, is a crawl position, not a prone position. So up on all fours like a dog, that would give you more mobility to get up stairs or even a 2 inch lip in a doorway.

BTW devs, I think you'd break your foot or tibia more than your femur(strongest bone), so a crawl is more likely.

Hi,

Thank you for sending in your feedback. We reproduced the issue and we'll ask our devs to have a look into it.

Hello again,

The devs have worked on the issue, so it should be easier to crawl around inside buildings and up/down stairs. However, if you find specific spots where it is impossible to crawl through for example, please feel free to open up seperate issues for those locations.

Regards,

JStewart
