[0.18.2.0] Limbs gets longer/shorter via death

This bug was introduced in this update- whenever you die using K key with [shorter/smaller] characters, your model will have stretched limbs as ragdoll via death.

Likewise if you use character models that are [bigger] (with growing potions); gets shorter limbs by dying- though it’s harder to notice depending on models.

Steps to Reproduce

  • Equip any character model that is shorter than default size/height (preferably humanoid type)
  • Equip shrinking potion (optional but it’ll help you notice better)
  • Enter Plaza, Condo, etc
  • Press K to die as ragdoll

You’ll notice that your character have stretched neck, arms, and legs in this state. It’s more noticeable with shrinking potion equipped.

What I expected to happen

Neck/limbs not to stretch or shorten via death

What happened

Your character’s neck/limbs gets stretched or shorter via death


Notes / Media

Longer neck/limbs via death if your model is smaller

This is how my model looks normally

I figure I might as well share my report too. I’m hoping this eventually gets fixed too.

This issue happens when the player model bones are scaled. The ragdoll system doesn’t know how to apply those scales so it contracts or stretches.

Sorry to bump this up- does that mean it cannot be fixed? (Genuine question)

Edit; this bug is still present in [0.18.8.0]
