What happens when the bug occurs? When my teammates and I were behind the pictured mound, whenever we tried to peek around the mound to shoot, our bullets shot a body length above where we were aiming. Also, whenever we walked up to the mound, we got launched in the air. There was an octane jumpad nearby but we shot it to destroy it, and the glitches kept happening.
What should be happening instead? There shouldn't be any affect to the bullet trajectory and I shouldn't get launched in the air
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go to this spot, throw a jumpad nearby, and shoot around the mount by A/D strafing left and right to peek around.

Thanks for the detailed post. It sounds like for whatever reason the mound had the jump pad effectr applied, hence it pushing you and the bullets upward. Very strange.

Is there any chance you have a pic or even a description of where the jump pad was? I've tried several so far and wasn't able to replicate.

Thanks again.

Sure, if you look at the screenshot the jump pad was just past the left bottom corner of my FOV and slightly behind me. I also remembered that there was a trident parked about 5-10m west by northwest of the jump pad. It didn't seem to be colliding with anything and we were able to drive it away just fine. If I have time I will try to go place another one there and take another screenshot.
