Bug #4003

Missing Animation for The Nightmare when moving while carrying a survivor.

Graphics

Status:	Duplicate
Added by:	Anonymous on June 4, '26
Reported for:	9.6.2
Actual Result:	No animation when moving while carrying when the sound cue occurs.
Expected Result:	Finger knife animation plays synced to the sound cue while moving and carrying
Severity:	Minor
Reproducibility:	Always
Platform:	Steam
Additional Notes & Comments:	In the video clips attachment, I've included a clip from an older version of the game where this bug did not occur to help visualize this issue.

Steps to Reproduce

Injure and down a survivor.
Pick up the survivor.
Move while carrying the survivor.
Wait for the sound cue to occur.

Explanation

When carrying a survivor and moving as The Nightmare, the finger knifes scratching each-other sound cue occurs without the animation on both Killer and Survivor points-of-view.

When standing still and not moving (and the carried survivor does not struggle), the animation does play, however it does not when moving at all.
