Steps to Reproduce
- Play as or against Kaneki
- Survivor and killer are on different elevations (often entirely different floors)
- Kaneki is able to bite the survivor from heights he should not be able to reach
Explanation
Kaneki's kagune leap bite has no check for verticality, allowing him to bite survivors nowhere near him.
This would be like allowing Legion to hit someone in Frenzy from a floor above them. The game seems to only check if a survivor is within a certain horizontal proximity to the killer rather than ensuring the vertical proximity is actually close enough for a bite to be made.

Here's a clip of my own showcasing this. When I'm literally on the ground an entire level below Ghoul, there is no reason he should be able to bite me.
