[CRASH] Ward hop crash
Copy and pasting my reddit post from here)
Ward hoppers will have noticed for the last several patches that the game will often bugsplat if you place a ward and try to hop to it too quickly. So far it doesn't seem like we have received much word from Riot other than they are looking into it and are unable to replicate it. I have spent a couple hours now extensively testing the ward hop.
I spent a long time messing around with my macros on my Razer keyboards, and with a specific macro I was able to replicate the bugsplat without fail, as demonstrated:
A few things to note in the video:
-
The macro I used can be seen here. Interestingly when I added the same delay after the lifting of the E key, the bugsplat did not happen. Infact any combination of 1 and E worked, as long as there was no delay at the end and the delay between the key presses was less than 0.100. This was set to go off continuously as long as my macro key was held down.
-
This only worked with the final ward. When I still had 1 or more wards in the inventory the game did not crash. When I only had one left and then fired the macro, the game crashed.
From there I did some more testing, and I found out some more facts involved with this:
-
This does not actually have to do with E, but work with any ability. For example, here I use my W as the macro instead CLICK ME)
-
This also works with activatible items such as twin shadows and mana pots CLICK ME)
-
This does not work when the ability is on cooldown CLICK ME)
From this we can conclude that it has to do with the ward and not the champion or the abilities, but still interacts with the casts of those abilities
This worked on multiple characters, not just Kat, and are pretty easy to replicate. If you want to replicate it but you don't have a macro software, just go into a custom game, buy a few green and pink wards, and mash the two buttons like Scarra.
