Phew... my code worked. 😰

Thanks for working on my boy path finder. I don't know if you were involved in the increase in his grapple distance but ever since that change, and the grapple to zips, he's felt unreal to play. Your hard work is appreciated, just unfortunate we are a vocal minority.

Grapple distance is something designers would tweak. I am just one of the people that write code for it. I did add that grapple-to-zipline myself though... so thanks!

The code for hopping between zips?

Yep. You can blame me for ziplines. :)

That code has gotten me out of so many pinches. It works so smoothly, thank you :)

Good to hear!

It's really a nice feature as you can grapple onto the baloon line and practically skip the first 5s of it making it harder to be shot lol.

Also did you fix the fact the grapple would snap back to the zipline if you tried to use it after jumping off, feels like it?

I did fix that, but I don't think it has made it out yet.

Top people are on it (new updates). I'm not on the build team, but I imagine there are a lot of moving parts we're still trying to figure out. We will get better.

Love the addition!

If you can't speak on it is cool- but lots of times I pull my Zipline out it just doesn't want to attach to anything

I'll put it away and pull it back out and then all of a sudden it will attach to places like I will expect

Hope this gets looked at!

Also, I came from Titanfall 2 as a grapple main so I have timing down really well, and for the first month I had no issues with this. But as of late, when I jump/grapple the jump won't influence the motion like I expect. It's like 30% of the time it just doesn't register the jump as "appropriately timed" and will grapple me without additional jump effect. I hope you guys can look into this and fix the consistency with the grapple/jump timing mechanic

(Side note: as octane I jump over his jump pad more frequently than jump with his jumpad- gave up on timing that so hopefully you guys can look at that too- I don't play octane much so I don't really mind when that happens lol)

Not sure about that. Get a video of it the next time it happens. And include the minute or so before it happened too, so we can try see if we can repro it.

It happens to me very often so I'm sure I could get a video in the next week easy

I would get an Xbox clip, so I'll clip it and send you a PM of the link unless you recommend a different method for notifying 👍

Appreciate the communication and love the game!

Sure. PM is fine.
