Dynamo's Quantum Entanglement does not function as intended under Green and Yellow bridge arches.

I have noticed in my games that quantum entanglement does not work as intended either because the hitboxes of the arches under Green and Yellow are slightly larger than they look or something else. The bugged area is quite large, and it is a major impedance on using it, especially during laning phase. There may be other places where the bugged area might be a problem, but I haven't seen such cases yet. I'll reply here if I find any place else. Thanks!

If that is fixed, then one could try to teleport through a closed room, potentially into a vent. How would the game know you want to teleport to a corner of a room or through it?

I don't know, actually. But I think this instance is bad enough that it can get a player killed or sabotaged because their entanglement didn't work as the actual hitbox is way bigger than what's visible. I don't think that's fair either. Yes, one could just go above but this doesn't feel right either. There's no real reason that these specific areas shouldn't be fixed.

Complex endeavour, but this is Valve we are talking about. Who's to say it can't be reused elsewhere?

Sure! If Valve is reading this, do your thing! Do some sort of geometry analysis or make special exceptions. I think the Geometrical route would be interesting (and fitting for Dynamo!).

Absolutely! Thanks for giving life to this post!

This reminds me of what happened during HL:A's development about player teleportation lol. They can probably do similar things to solve this problem.

Any ceiling will cause this problem. Also, Mina and Dynamo seems to have the same detection. Examples:
