Isn’t it just that the green bar always represents the same-size window of time, but the duration of the reload varies drastically depending how much ammo you’re reloading? Like let’s say the Active Reload window is 200ms and you’re only reloading one shot and that takes 1000ms (these numbers...

fun application of doorman slingshotting

New slingshotting discovery: Doorman can slingshot with his doors (also with his cart), and when slingshotting through a door he for some reason seems to get the speed boost added again (or reset, or something), so if you have your outgoing door facing in the same direction as your incoming door...

Heavy Melee Cancel was a movement tech that you'd use midair to get a burst of horizontal speed, and this game has fun ways to extend a burst of horizontal speed (mainly with sliding and walljumping), so it was a fun tech to use. It was removed, but now we have Slingshotting (a recently...

Slingshotting: Seems to be that when certain abilities end at the same time as a dash ends (or when using certain abilities that interrupt a dash), and you input a dash in the opposite direction (with precise timing, easy using scroll wheel), you'll get a huge speed boost. It can be done with...

You’re most likely testing it in the sandbox or practice range or whatever it’s called, which has q big red sphere out of bounds that happens to be placed in a way that it’s visible in Doorman’s ult. So this doesn’t happen on the actual map but I suppose it is still something to fix...

There’s a checkbox in the crosshair settings that’s supposed to remove the black border from the crosshair pips (the lines that aren’t the dot) but it’s been non-functional since late last year and I’m starting to wonder if it’s been forgotten. I miss having a clean-looking crosshair.

just for posterity I'm noting out loud that this DID get fixed, today. (and the Pip Border crosshair checkbox is still broken)

I have bad news; it wasn't completely fixed. The dash goes the proper length now and spinning the scroll wheel can't consume ALL your stamina at once, but it still consumes 2 stamina instead of 1 for every ground dash (if using a scroll input).

Do you use a scroll input to dash? I've found that a scroll input is fucked up now and a normal key input works as expected. Posted a thread here.

Oh true, if I scroll one "click" then it uses 2 stamina instead of 1 like before, but if I just scroll freely then it uses tons of stamina. Previously, it would always only use 1 stamina per dash no matter how much I scrolled. And a normal key input behaves as expected (you can't spam it), but a...

I use Scroll Down as my dash input, and the Billy update made it so that it uses 2 stamina instead of 1 and barely goes anywhere. Using a non-scroll input works as normal but the scroll input is fucked now. Also, while I'm here: The crosshair pip border toggle is still broken!!! It's impossible...

When you press Tab while looking at the Majestic Leap tooltip, to "See Details", it will show a panel saying that your Sprint Speed is being reduced by 0.8 and your move speed is being reduced by 2.72. Seeing as the item does not do either of these things (at least not in the constant way that...

This bug is actually still around. You can't use Majestic Leap with low headroom anymore but you CAN use it precisely while standing e.g. in the doorway of the teleporter (with headroom above you but facing into a room with no headroom), such that the Leap causes you to enter the room and hit...

Tankbuster can proc on non-hero targets (e.g. neutral creeps) without resetting its cooldown, but it seems to be the case (in my testing in Sandbox) that after the first proc on each target, you can't proc it again on the same target until you ACTUALLY trigger its cooldown (by procing it against...
