[Confirmed] Relocate Camera Focus

[Shinrat3nsei]

So first it was Wisp's ulti not showing on minimap. Now it's when you ulti with wisp+friend, the screen goes to where u teleported FROM, not where you teleported to.

Summary:
When using relocate, sometimes Game-Camera stays at the point you ported from.

Repro:
1) Level up Wisp lvl 6 and cast relocate
2) leftclick (or rightclick) as fast as you can on the ground whie the port animation is shown

Result:
Sometimes the cam doesnt jump with you

Expected:
Cam should jump every time to the location you portetd to.

[Confirmed] wisp camera panning bug when relocate

sometimes when you use relocate the camera does not pan/snap to the correct location - it instead pans to the location where wisp was before the relocate (so if your camera was on the location you are teleporting to, you are panned back and you end up walking to a random area if you are spamming right click). i have no idea how to reproduce this bug but it happens for about 1 in 8 relocates (so its very common in every game) and fuks up our gank completely, its really annoying.

i will try to get a replay and timestamp but i still don't know what the actual cause or repro is. im usually at fountain when this happens (not always) and it snaps back to the fountain instead of snapping to my relocate location

surely other wisp players have experienced this and can provide more feedback?

I agree the camera isn't jumping reliably in various situations.

You could always have the camera follow your hero while relocating thus it won't happen, but it's a kinda crappy solution since you cant see around you properly with the camera stuck on you until you unlock the camera again.

Maybe a checkup on the range of your current camera position to your new hero position could help, if it's within a certain radius the camera shouldn't jump, thinking about ~800 units from the center of the screen should be fine.

im trying to find a replay from player perspective but it seems like it doesn't show. i will have to wait for a certain situation where this happens and timestamp/match ID it.

that sounds like a good solution.. the current spell is pretty gg.. not so much that it snaps ur camera for absolutely no reason because your camera will/should be where you relocated anyway (and screws up your positioning), but that it DOESN'T even do its job properly. ive missed a shtload of ninja kills and got uncoordinated because of the camera just snapping to a random location that i didn't even relocate to lol.

please allow us to toggle this lol.. or do it only for the player that is being tethered. the above suggested solution seems like it would work well. right now, the spell is doing something that sounds good on paper but fukks everything up (and its bugged which is even worse - i don't mind the current concept *that* much, just that its not working as intended, i never had this issue in dota 1 and the camera always snapped as expected).

I approve. I want to start thread like this but was too lazy. Btw I think there is no need for camera automove or at least make this can be disabled.

i started a thread long ago for this but nobody comments there

Your title is incorrect. This one actually about "camera moving", not "camera not moving".

the camera doesn't move to the correct location.

match ID 65496112

replay time 10:30

when wisp relocate is used the camera snaps back to the location where wisp WAS when he used relocate instead of the position he is relocating to. watch from player perspective.

happens at least 15 times during the match again.

please fix soon, its annoying enough to not want to play wisp. thanks.

[mingzie]

can someone please confirm? there have been other threads about this with no replies and its been a long time.

match ID is above

thanks

This has happened to me numerous times (I usually find that it happens when I use the map to move the camera just before I get relocated)

[mingzie]

sorry for the bump but this thread has been made at least 5 times already by other people with no responses over the last year
