What happens when the bug occurs? game says that you need to return to battle every time you are on the ground. the only way to stop the countdown from ticking is to be in the air/on a zipline. being on a zipline helped restart the 30 second timer. also, one time in the same game with the issue occurring, spawned in using respawner, when landed instantly died ( without ability to revive )
What should be happening instead? game should only show return to battle if player is out of bounds
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. spawned in on drop ship. 2. issue started occurring when dropship was hovering over mountains. 3. dropped down in PLAY AREA in order to stop the countdown. 4. "return to the battle" countdown continued every time one was not in the air in some way
issue occurred while landing on a drop ship from start of game. after ship was moving over mountains, "return to battle" warning appeared along with countdown. teammates also had countdown. in order to try and fix issue, landed on ground that was within play area. every time the character was on the ground (making contact with the ground), the "return to battle" warning countdown would continue. (this issue would not occur for my teammates that stayed on the drop ship. I then died once. my teammate picked up my banner and respawned me at the nearest respawner. upon landing from the respawn ship, instantly died and could not be revived. again, we spawned in by teammate that picked up banner at next respawner, and upon landing, received the same "return to battlefield" warning along with 30 second countdown. in order to avert this issue, jumped constantly and rushed to a zipline thinking that since it is technically not ground, may stop timer. my assumption was correct and the timer would not appear while ziplined ( or in the air in any fashion, such as jumping ). error continued through entire game, making it relatively impossible to play the game due to not being able to not stop jumping or ziplining. also, upon being downed by an enemy team, the "return to battlefield" warning would continue ( as i was downed, on the ground, with no way to get away from the ground). Basically, the entire game, i was playing a good ol game of "the floor is lava".
