Steps to Reproduce
- Chainsaw sprint off of any sort of elevation: a hill, ledge, second story building, etc.
- Steer while midair (the bug doesn't occur when going in a straight line)
- Land while continuing your chainsaw sprint
- Try to move (you can't)
Explanation
When chainsaw sprinting off of a ledge, The Hillbilly will start moving in super slow-motion if he tries to curve while midair. Billy slows down while sawing midair, but it seems this slowdown continues even after landing, resulting in a pretty comically slow chainsaw sprint. He is very nearly standing completely still. While funny, it makes his power useless when going off ledges, which is a pretty major issue on some maps. The slowdown also seems to sometimes carry over to his next chainsaw sprint, even if it's not done off a ledge, but that is less consistent. I've only had that happen once.
