Describe the issue in detail.

This is a bug I’ve labeled Tree distortion, it is a bug that affects how trees branches and trunks are spaced from each other from the same tree. It can cause severe lag if there are multiple loose trees, can possibly duplicate branches, and can allow trees to be completely off of a base and be anchored to said base.

Tree distortion is performed by repeatedly chopping the smallest, or close to, pieces off of the trunk of the tree, or base branch with an axe (presumably any axe; worked with emberbane and heavenly poleaxe). A signifier that it might be working is if the tree keeps disappearing and reappearing. This works best on weeping willows and electric trees.

There are three forms to tree distortion:

Scattered: The pieces seemingly randomize their position.

Cylinder: The middle of each branch is in one straight line and each branch is about perpendicular to the line going through the middle of the branches.

Ball: The middle of each branch converges into one point and the orientation of the branch is seemingly random.

The attached media:

-Photo 1 shows that branches can be duplicated, this particularly duplication glitch in photo 1 was unable to be replicated however, and it spawned in two more branches(the tree started with 2 branches and one branch is out of frame), which weren’t identical but hadn’t exist before this glitch was performed and the tree trunk had been completely chopped.

-Photo 2 shows an example of major scattered tree distortion on a weeping willow, and parts of the tree are off of the base, although it is anchored.

-Photo 3-4 shows the cylinder form of tree distortion, photo 4 has some of the pieces underground.

-Photo 5-6 shows filled schematics being displayed improperly, photo 5 shows the thin macaroni (filled with refined marble) being invisible, photo 6 shows cubes (filled with refined lightslate) missing a texture and being displayed as a simple gray. This was recorded after rejoining the server.

-The first two videos in game show how to preform tree distortion.

-The last video shows how the server can suffer extreme issues when trying to join, likely due to lag. I had to restart my Roblox client 3 times and had to restart my device to be able to play.

ps. I’d appreciate a bug bounty computer :D
