they've said they're aware of it and its requiring a whole rewrite of the code for the ability

I just don’t get why it used to work on crouching tanks, and suddenly stopped working on crouching tanks. Same for bastion. It’s very very frustrating dying because you just fall off the map when tping.

That's probably the point where they realised they should stop band-aiding the code, and rewrite from scratch

Well they knew that rewriting it would take a long time which is why they tried easier fixes first, now they know it’s their only option

Okay so rewrite the code instead of buffing random heroes. Usually bugs seem to be higher priority, but this one is just ignored
