Demonic Circle: Teleport

[Pornoodemon]

Description: Demonic Circle: Teleport https://cata-twinhead.twinstar.cz/?spell=48020

The bug happens mainly in the arena. Quite often, for unknown reasons, the character does not teleport into position of the installed portal, but teleports on the spot this happens quite often, but in a random order and under incomprehensible conditions, it is very difficult to make a video recording,I run into this all the time in the arena but I can't find patterns This problem is noted by all warlocks This greatly affects the outcome of the battle in the arena, when at some point you need to teleport behind a column or somewhere else.

Most often occurs if the portal is installed at the beginning of the battle in the arena. I have a guess that (Maybe there is some algorithm that resets the position of the portal some time after the start of the battle, so that the warlock can't teleport into the pipe in the arena of dalaran or something like that,But the problem occurs in all arenas. but that's just my guess. Only the developer can understand exactly how the problem works by looking into the spell

Please provide video of that issue

Пожалуйста, предоставьте видео этой проблемы

I can't catch a moment to write it down as it happens randomly. When I play in the arena, I will try to record and maybe get it recorded. But I don't know how long it will take.

This happened to my friend warlock aswell in 3 v 3 arena, unfortunatly i dont have video evidence either.

[Pornoodemon]

Это случилось с моим другом чернокнижником на арене 3 на 3, к сожалению, у меня тоже нет видеодоказательств.

This happens to all warlocks in the arena, it's just that no one knows when to expect it and therefore it's impossible to make a record

So far I do not think I have seen this one happen in my soloQ games, and I play a fair bit of warlock here. But will look out for it.

@Pornoodemon Quite often, for unknown reasons, the character does not teleport into position of the installed portal, but teleports on the spot What do you mean by "teleport on the spot"?

[Pornoodemon]

@Pornoodemon Quite often, for unknown reasons, the character does not teleport into position of the installed portal, but teleports on the spot Что вы подразумеваете под «телепортироваться на месте»?

I used a spell, the animation and sound of the spell appears and the cooldown on the ability. but fter teleporting, the player is not transferred from point A to point B., the player remains at their current position ( in point A)

And removing snare auras- that part works okay?

[Pornoodemon]

removing snare auras

If you mean removing snare auras at the time of this glitch, then I didn't think about it. Theoretically, it is quite possible that there is some kind of debuff that creates this error and prevents the warlock from teleporting.

I mean this part of the spell.

Description: Teleports you to your Demonic Circle and removes all snare effects

Я имею в виду эту часть заклинания.

As for the removal of frostbite of the magician, dk, shaman,Druid Roots and any decrease in running speed, works fine, But I didn't follow all the similar effects. Because I don't know all the auras. which this spell should remove

[UltraNix]

I meant: when this bug occurs, the removal of snare effects work? Or both effects do not work then?

[Pornoodemon]

the removal of snare effects work . only teleportation does not work.At the time of this bug, I clearly saw this on the example of snare effects mage

Spent 30 min on this to repro on arena - no results :(

[Pornoodemon]

Потратил 30 минут на воспроизведение на арене - результатов нет :(

This is a specific error that is unlikely to be reproduced intentionally. I can also add that during this bug the portal itself disappears at the place of its creation, and the buff of the created portal remains on the player. . I'll give an example. I put the portal on the bridge and then jumped down. After that, in battle, I teleported and this error occurred. After that, I ran onto the bridge, but the portal I created disappeared, although it was still in buffs and after the cooldown on the ability expired, I could use it again, but in fact the portal itself is not at the place of its creation . Need to find a pattern, maybe over time one of the players will be able to notice how it works. It feels like something is dispelling or breaking the part of the ability that is responsible for the position of the created portal. Is it possible to see in the program code of this spell what it might be, maybe it will be possible to find a clue there.

[UltraNix]

Use any macro here? Maybe at the same time when you use teleport, you also place another demonic circle?

[Pornoodemon]

Использовать здесь какой-нибудь макрос? Может быть, одновременно с телепортом вы размещаете еще один демонический круг?

I often use the trinket macro to remove stuns and Demonic Circle: Teleport But the Demonic Circle: Teleport spell should not create a new portal, and during this bug, the new portal does not visually appear either.

[Pornoodemon]

I myself intentionally also cannot reproduce it simply by teleporting.

Need to look for a hint in the program code under what conditions the portal can break

In addition, this happened twice and on BG, so it was most likely not in the arena.

[UltraNix]

@Pornoodemon Still happens?

[Pornoodemon]

@PornoodemonВсе еще происходит?

And not only in the arena. Happened in Durotar in a duel with Priest. This happens rarely.So the arena can be ruled out as a root cause.

[Pornoodemon]

@PornoodemonВсе еще происходит?

Theoretically, even if you record it on video, it won’t change anything. It will only confirm the presence of the problem. I still can’t understand the algorithm for how this bug works

[Pornoodemon]

@Sketish @UltraNix I managed to capture this today The portal is installed on t the bridge

@Pornoodemon Do you have the whole, unedited video?

[Pornoodemon]

@PornoodemonУ вас есть целое неотредактированное видео?

Since it was an arena fight, I barely had time to wait for the CD on the teleport, minimize the game window and select an area to record a video to demonstrate it before I was killed. The video is not cropped. I was just trying to quickly record a video and chose this area to capture video At the very beginning of the battle, there was nothing unusual. I created a demonic teleport on the bridge and jumped down , then when I used it, this bug happened. There were no buffs or debuffs other than a set of warlock buffs and I did not use any macros for teleportation. It is noteworthy that no matter how many times I use teleportation in the future, this bug will be repeated until the demonic circle is reinstalled

[Pornoodemon]

For a better understanding, the portal was installed in this place. Everything happens as always, without any oddities. This bug becomes clear only at the moment when you try to teleport. Teleportation occurs on the place and not in the established demonic circle (As in the video)

[Pornoodemon]

In general, I tried to look for patterns in this bug for half a year. The only thing I can highlight: 1 - approximately 70% of cases occur more often in arenas for some reason. 2- If this has already happened, then this problem persists until relog/or until the demonic circle is reinstalled. 3- there is no dependence on the presence of any player actions, buffs or debuffs, or on any situation in battle. This is something at the code level (It works as if, due to some error in the code, at the moment of creation of the demonic circlethe - point for teleportation was tied not to the established demonic circle, but to the player and moved with him) Alternatively, you can try to look for the problem in the code itself or leave it as it is, since this happens quite rarely.

[UltraNix]

Maybe the circle summoned somewhere a little bit underground or something like that? I will add more debug code to this one and we'll see what happens.

It is quite possible Visually, the demonic circle on the surface is installed correctly. But if there are any checks teleportation into objects/geometry and other things, this could very well be related Theoretically, the teleportation point can fall within collision objects. And if there is a check for this in the code, then this can create a similar problem.

+1 i just noticed this bug is back yesterday. It happened like 3 times in a like 3 hour session
