Description of the issue: Cannot revive if you die placing a trap.

Include details on when this issue started happening: First discovered in Patch 8.40.1 (24/04/2019)

Any additional details, such as how to reproduce it: I was placing a trap before I was knocked down. I was stuck placing a trap (red outline show --> I can't place the trap because I'm knocked). This meant that I couldn't select the "Revive here" or "Revive at spawn" options because I was stuck placing a trap. Normally this wouldn't be an issue if a teammate came along and picked you up but for whatever reason no one joined my public lobby in a PL100 Evacuate the Shelter mission. I couldn't revive until the full 30 seconds was up and I almost lost the match, if not for my 3 defenders and my crude trap tunnels. Ple...

Awesome, thank you for letting us know! I'll escalate this within the team to see if we can get this to happen on our end.

I'll add a screenshot later but it's basically a gnome that simply doesn't glow and when hit doesn't count .

Awesome, thank you for the report. I'll have some testing done on this so that we can get it fixed.

Thank you!

Thanks for the kind words u/RisKQuay. We definitely appreciate it! The development team works extremely hard and it doesn't feel great when an issue like that sits for that long. Sometimes game development can be tricky and not all fixes are easy to detect / fix.

I'll relay your message to everyone. Thank you!

What an awesome write up! This was a blast to read and I love the detail you put into it (With screenshots!). Thank you for taking the time to write this up and share it with the community. I'll think about your guide every time I see a Walloper wielding Constructor fly across my screen.. that's for sure!

See you all in game :)

This is incredible. Thank you for sharing this with everyone. Even the Llama is admiring!

These are absolutely incredible. Thank you for taking the time to create and share them with the community!

We're trying to figure out what caused Defenders to stop shooting through walls. There was no intentional change / nerf to how they operate. I've noticed that if you don't box them in.. they will shoot. It's only once they are boxed in that they start to misbehave (unless Husks are within a tile range or 2).

We're still digging into this.

No, that fix will come in v8.50.

Hey everyone,

We will be releasing a small client patch tomorrow, April 22nd at 8am EST (1200 UTC) to fix an issue which caused console players to be kicked from Save the World matches. There will be no downtime.

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing this! We're aware that some weapons (Jack's Revenge) are having issues with shots registering. We're currently doing a pass on weapons and hope to have this resolved soon.

Thank you!

So far I had it happen with a floor piece (on the ground) of a radio tower. Another player was able to place it for me (that's why I think it's based on the player and not something that is happening for everybody).

Then I had it happen with a 180° rotated stair piece close to a wall (The ones you do to prevent smashers from charging) in a Ride the Lighting mission.

After that I experienced it in a RTH mission (Video below) with a rotated stair piece as well. The building indicator is blue and you can clearly build in the specific area but trying to place it doesn't do anything. Interesting thing though is that I was able to place a stair piece with a different rotation and rotate it afterwards.

I can't explain the Radio Tower floor issue but maybe the other two cases...

Thank you for taking the time to write this up and record video. This type of info helps us get to the bottom of these issues. We'll take a pass and see if we can get this to happen on our end.

Evidence:

If replicable, how: Place a gas trap and you can see the top of it poking through the ceiling. Place a dart trap or broadside and you can see it from the back of the wall piece.

Platform: PC

Interesting. I'll reach out to the art department to see if this is intended.

Thank you!
