Bug Spear & Regions

[leftovers5]

Hello. It has come to mind today that I should finally report that spear can be used from outside a region to pull someone who is inside a region (around 1 block inside the region). Kainzo sort of tested this with me awhile back, but this came up short. Has anyone else had experiences like this?

In my experience, it was only ever due to lag, I had the No-PvP tag come up dozens of times while trying it on border hoppers. It only ever really triggered when I caught someone taking too long to get back to the safe zone.

Hm, interesting, yeah. Kainzo said it was lag based. It was just today though I noticed I was standing 1 block in the region and was pulled out from inside the region.

What happens:
Spear is used on the target, who is generally border hopping, and by the time they have walked back into the NO-pvp, the spear warmup ends, pulling the person out of what seems to be the no pvp. Generally they are still in the PVP zone, but lag causes them to think "Gosh darnit I could have sworn I was in the No-PVP"

That's what you get for being a borderhumpingfucker.

EDIT: its the warmup that tricks you.

Thanks for the comment! Glad a goon got to this thread.

If that's the case, would it be better to have spear have no warmup, but an extended cooldown?

Meh, I think its fine how it is. Once you tag them with spear they are going to get pulled either way.

Making it instant would just make it easier.

Lag - would happen with any skill, nothing we can do about it.
