Bug #388

Shield Buff Applied Incorrectly to All Players When Deploying

Status:	New
Priority:	High
Added by:	Gren on March 2, '25
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	S05.08

Steps to Reproduce

1. Load into any mission
2. Place a shield on the host player
3. Check for shield buff on all non-host players

Explanation

Gunner shields provide the buff to all players on the server if the host is in the shield radius while it is deploying. The host can be any class and it doesn't matter if the host is downed or not. The buff gets applied to everyone no matter the distance from the host.

This only occurs if the host is in the shield while deploying, not while walking in after it is up.

This bug happens on both modded and unmodded clients/host.
