Prophunt bug Report: Spellbooks

Post by West »

There is a bug in prophunt where if you equip the Spell book on your scout class, it will show up on your prop. For whatever reason though, when the owner of the spell book dies, if they spectate other props it will show up on them instead.

- Spectator giving me the spell book

- Spell book on someone else

Something I should note is that when a spectator is giving the spell book to others, the spell book kind of follows them around instead of staying perfectly on top of them when they actually have it equipped (I have seen a similar effect before, but with something else that can no longer be replicated).

- You can see the spell book near the chat box "following" me

The main issue with this bug is that it reveals prop locations by having the spell book floating above the prop, and then in turn reveals the locations of others once the owner dies.

This has been a longstanding bug in prophunt for a long time now, but to be honest I completely forgot it existed until today.
EASY FIX: Just make it so that players can't equip the spell book (similar to how you cannot use the reserve shooter).

I tried to replicate it but for some reason it wouldn't work for me, not sure why

I remember seeing the same thing with a canteen ages ago, but not recently. Probably still works though. I also know a friend who has a fireproof secret diary who confirmed to me that it works with that too.
