Bug #986

Aura Visual Glitch During Hooking Animation

Status:	Open
Priority:	Medium
Added by:	MarbleThrone on January 28, '26
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	9.4.0
Actual Result:	Survivor's aura behaves strangely when the hook animation happens
Expected Result:	Survivor's aura should not flop to the floor when being hooked, as this does not represent the action being performed
Severity:	Minor
Reproducibility:	Always
Platform:	Steam
Additional Notes & Comments:	Not set

Steps to Reproduce

1. Wait for a teammate to be downed by the killer
2. Watch as the killer is carrying them away and wait for the hook to happen
3. Notice how your teammate's aura behaves oddly before snapping to the correct position

Explanation

A visual bug occurs whenever a killer performs the hooking action on a teammate. The survivor's aura briefly flops down on the floor before correctly being shown on hook again. This is a consistent occurance.
