Bug #185

Survivors Spawning Separately Despite Intended Change

Status:	New
Priority:	High
Added by:	ariannadiangelo on December 11, '25
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	9.3.2
Actual Result:	Survivors sometimes start on opposite ends of the map or different floors from each other, significantly farther apart than they should be
Expected Result:	Survivors without an offering to change their starting spawn locations spawn together or as close to together as possible
Severity:	Minor
Reproducibility:	Frequently
Platform:	Steam
Additional Notes & Comments:	Not set

Steps to Reproduce

1. Play killer
2. Load into match using Lethal Pursuer
3. See survivor spawn locations and check offerings

Explanation

Survivors sometimes spawn separately without an offering to do so. A change was made this year to force survivors to always spawn together, or as close to together as possible. However, I have had multiple matches where this is blatantly not the case, and survivors have not brought any offerings to separate their starter spawn locations.

This was a really great QOL change for killer...if it worked, which it doesn't many times.

In particular, this issue seems to arise when a killer spawns in the middle of a map, especially smaller maps like Gideon, Midwich, etc.
