Training bot pathing can break

Bot pathing can get stuck. It’s sadly unknown how to replicate it. If anyone knows it would be appreciated!

As far my research goes all enemy training bots with always active pathing can be broken and their pathing will not continue like normal.

They will either:

  • Get stuck and can’t move
  • Move left right -> Stand still (Loop
  • Continue their normal path but then on a different location.
  • Spin in circles???

Attempts made to fix their pathing:

  • Lucio boop
  • Phara boop
  • Orisa’s halt
  • Enviormental elimination
  • Normal elimination
  • Melee
  • Doomfist abilities
  • Hammond
  • Other ways could have been used but it clearly has no effect

In some cases bot’s will become stuck to their spot and cannot be moved by ANY ability. Also known as knockback invincibility.

I do not know how to replicate this. How did it happen for me?

  • Well it happend when i killed a training bot before it was done rebuilding itself (Respawning animation)
  • Been too long in the training range. Server restarted and got put back. Bots had weird behaviour.
    ^
    Note that trying this will not replicate it any way yet this is what i did before it caused the glitch.

(Wrote this awhile ago happend to me recently)

This issue has been present since months, and has been reported for just as long, but nothing is being done about it. As an avid AI player, this is very irksome.
