[Bug / Exploit] Mount / Dismount double jump
Metasmith
Member, Alpha Two
Description:
When trying to climb walls, mounts will 'slide' across sloped surfaces with normal physics, allowing a player to jump, dismount, slide the horse along the surface, and then mount again mid slide, then dismount again further up the slope than intended. This can be used to scale surfaces with a smooth slope in seemingly unintended ways.
Bug Reproduction Steps:
Jump against sloped surface while dismounting mount.
Immediately spam mount key and remount while 'sliding' as a physics object.
Dismount again at higher point that intended. Possibly gives a second jump, but hard to tell.
Expected Result
I expected the horse would fall straight down, rather than maintain its physics as an object on the surface.
Actual Result
By taking advantage of the sliding and the movement of the player to the horse saddle and then the new dismount location, the player can be moved further along the slippery surface. Was used in the area above where the map is less complete, and the terrain is more exploitable in this fashion, though there is not much here to climb for.
