McGinnis Wall Section Bug

[blakhound]

McGinnis' spectral wall ability doesn't always deploy to the full size, some sections can be missing if it is cast near walls (especially bad indoors or in doorways).
The wall sections appear to form in a specific order starting with the middle, then left right repeating. If any wall section fails to form (as it is blocked) then no more will attempt to spawn on either side.
It is possible to spawn a only a single middle wall section even when there is room around it which I don't think is intended.

To fix this maybe all spectral wall sections should be forced to spawn at the same height as the center section, even if they clip through terrain.

Thread 'McGinnis Wall not spawning segments'

Aug 14, 2024

McGinnis' Wall will not spawn segments at times, even when on flat surfaces. One recent instance I had was match id 1183831 at about 24 minutes, I turn and throw the wall to block a doorway, and while it spawns one segment, it spawns no others and so doesn't block the door. The wall segment it does spawn, does spawn intersecting with terrain, so I don't think that's the reason for others to not spawn. I will update with more match IDs and times as I review them.

Thread 'McGinnis Wall - Cutoff/Incomplete when near walls in game'

Jun 9, 2024

I've noticed that if the ability is placed near a wall in game that her ability will not place all sections (as indicated by the outline generated). I have attached a video showcasing an example. This bug is not consistent amongst all walls in the game, McGinnis' ability seems to interact somewhat different depending on the wall terrain.

I also noted that when on higher elevation the ability will generate at lower elevation as well, but will not do the reverse.

These are likely similar to what you're experiencing. I've run into this as well. Drives me nuts. @__@

I have to catch up on the second thread, now that I've been reminded of it, but just thought it may be beneficial to pool your information over there? If you want to, that is. Just a suggestion. ^__^
