Inconsistent Stun Application When Killer Carries Survivor

Reported for:
10.2.1 Patch Notes
Actual Result:
The stun sometimes fails to register, seemingly depending on the timing of the Killer's attack. This makes flashlight saves and other stun interactions inconsistent.
Expected Result:
The stun should consistently register when the conditions for a flashlight save or another stun are met.
Severity:
Major
Reproducibility:
Frequently
Platform:
Epic
Additional Notes & Comments:
This issue does not happen every time, but it can have a noticeable impact on gameplay, as Survivors may lose a save opportunity even when they time their actions correctly.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Have the Killer pick up a Survivor.
  2. Have another Survivor attempt a flashlight save while the Killer is carrying them.
  3. Observe that, in some cases, the blind occurs but the expected stun does not register.
  4. Repeat the situation while timing an attack at the exact moment the stun should be applied. But in this case with a pallet.

Explanation

I have encountered an issue where stuns sometimes fail to register correctly while the Killer is carrying a Survivor. This can happen during a flashlight save, when another Survivor blinds the Killer to make them drop the carried Survivor, but the stun does not always get applied.

The same issue can occur when the Killer gets stunned while carrying a Survivor. It seems to happen inconsistently, and one possible cause is performing an attack at the exact moment the stun should occur. In these situations, the stun animation or effect may not trigger properly, allowing the Killer to avoid the stun and continue as normal.
