Jungle minion bug in Hexakill TT [GAMEPLAY]

While playing a match of Hexakill, I noticed that while moving around the map using attack move, that whenever a large jungle minion would come into range, it would automatically start attacking the large jungle minion. However, once it was dead, using the same attack move, the champion would disregard the other minions of the camp and would continue to move right along on their merry way. In fact, the only way I was able to attack the jungle minions at all was by attacking the small minions specifically. This could be very problematic if hexakill gets released to the server and (as most people do) people decide to attack move across the map and end up being killed because their champion attacked the large camp instead of the enemy champions. How to recreate this bug (I specifically used tristana for this, but this is most likely also a problem for other champions in Hexakill): Step 1: Attack move towards any jungle camp on Hexakill Twisted Treeline Step 2: Either move or attack move anywhere else around the camp after hitting any of the monsters Step 3: Watch as the jungle creeps can attack you as much as they please without activating any aggro from the champion.*See edit I will see about trying to get a video of this bug to further clarify this, as well as testing this with more champions in custom games and in normals.

Edit #1: Upon further testing in another game (rengar this time) I tried to focus more on the jungle seeing as rengar is a champion who actually can do pretty well in the jungle basically anywhere, and discovered that the bug is a slight bit different than origionally thought. It appears to be a problem with champion aggro as they are attacking the jungle camps. The champion will start to attack the camp as regular, but if you do any other moves or attack moves after attracting the aggro of the camp, the champion won't recognize the currently attacking jungle minions as threats, and does not attack the jungle camp while the jungle camp is free to do whatever they want without consequence. It is possible once you lose the aggro of the camp to go ahead and attack move one more time to go ahead and attack the camp again, but the same problem will occur. Due to this, I am changing my steps for how to repeat and recreate this bug above.

Shouldn't this be reported in the PBE forum, im assuming thats where you were playing Hexakill as it is not available on live servers.
