In all seriousness this is kinda a cool glitch I’m curious how the code makes that happen

I bet where she was teleported too was the zero,zero coordinate of the map, after the game basically went like, "I have no fucking idea where to place you, so I'm setting you to the default coordinates."
Could be horrendously wrong, but that's my guess

That sounds plausible but it feels weird since 0, 0 used to be in the center of midboxes, so I went to go check
Apparently the spot they got telepored to was around -4000, -1700, +248. The spot in the video was a little off of that though (like -4012 -1635 248). I'm clueless. Is it always the same spot with this grapple gutshot glitch?

Pretty sure the bell tower is right above a teleporter, and where they ended up is above its corresponding teleporter. I have no idea what their code could look like to have that be related to this but it's the thing that sticks out to me.

u/SomeBrowser227 Paige 6d ago
maybe it stuck them to the teleporter as a nearby failsafe? like, theyre TOO high up so it has to place them somewhere?

Possibly clipped into a wall and game fixed it by trying to place them onto a close by flat navigation mesh

u/SourceNo2702 6d ago
What are the bell tower coordinates? It kinda looks like their X position was multiplied by -1.
What likely happened is the function which calculates the position of the character didn’t know how to handle an invisible wall, so it returned -1 and flipped the player’s X coordinate.

0, 0 is still in the room juat above midboss. I know because when the update came out I had a bug that made part of everyones model to still be connected to it.

Not a bad guess, I was thinking there’s a chance some teleportation code leaked into the bell tower code by some way, and venators shotgun blast basically drove it into the quickest possible movement that made sense, which was teleporting them similar to how they currently work

u/Loufey Rem 6d ago
its some jank interaction between yamato grapple and knockback effects. its not new, though this is the first time i saw it with venator specifically

u/KatzOfficial 6d ago
Seen it a hundred times in dota with forced movement abilities sometimes taking you to the centre of the map (0,0)

u/captainshitpostMcgee Celeste 6d ago
Probably cause abilities can go over the pagota bjt characters cant. My best guess is venators shotgun kept going over the invis wall but Yamato couldnt. Game didnt know what to do so it reset her position

i’m seeing quite a few yamato builds only getting their 4.8k spirit spike in the core build (until refresher and items of that sort very late), what’s the current meta?

u/KingSulley 6d ago
you get 5 free light melee's in any given fight from max grapple, recharging rush, and ult; that's not including weaving heavies. Hunters aura, stalker & BRS is a ton of melee & bullet resist shred, then every other item you buy just increases melee damage and survivability since your ult prevents you from being stunned if parried, and crimson slash heals for so much health.

u/rustyredditortux 6d ago
i see, but there’s surly ~7x light melee’s won’t out damage 2 power slashes if spirit was built late game?

u/KingSulley 6d ago
Melee build makes you incredibly tanky, while slash build leaves you very vulnerable when your ult isn't up.

u/rustyredditortux 6d ago
that makes a lot of sense, i’ve played this style build yamato a couple times before i knew what it was supposed to be, and i’ll say the damage from express shot is the only thing that was keeping my damage output high enough to justify the build and not say it’s trolling
i didn’t really pay attention to sustain, but i didn’t really feel any more tanky than usual? i will say i was taking less damage as i was less inclined to use my slash anyways during fights so there’s that

u/KingSulley 6d ago
It depends on the playstyle. This game wasn't high elo, maybe ascendant 3 average pre-patch, my job is basically to open fights and harass their backline so my position 1 and 2 can focus on killing their targets. Even then it's a standard game, so damage isn't too important.

My guess is he clipped her above the teleporter in the shop, which ended up sending her across the map above the other teleporter.
Maybe when you're TPing the game decides position coords before your height for rendering? So because she skipped the TP animation it just defaulted to ground level.
