Explanation

I've experienced a bug several times (at least 4 or 5 times) across different matches and while playing different survivors on different maps in the last couple of weeks. I am unable to move/walk/etc. after I am unhooked. I've found other posts online that had a similar bug description, one from 2022 and another from 2024. It seems like it's an issue that occurs after you are hooked for the first time and then you are unhooked, but you can't move. The killer downed me, rehooked me, and after I got unhooked a second time I was able to move again. It's an especially annoying bug because it makes it look like I am AFK or I have given up when I haven't. I am not sure how to tell you to reproduce this bug, since it seems to happen randomly/inconsistently.
