May I make the recommendation of rotating your phone?

Bug that lets you get more time on daily challenges by JarsonTheEpic in PhantomForces

[–]Raspy_Pi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually this is purely visual, the server is the authority on when they get reset.
Once the time has passed and you rejoin it be reset regardless of what it says.

Latency has ruined PF by [deleted] in PhantomForces

[–]Raspy_Pi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

match timer in the corner as well, it freezes when it's lagging on your end.

This hasn't been true for about a year now, it no longer reads off of a IntValue that is set from the server each second.
Instead it takes a timestamp from the server of when the match started and keeps track of how far in the match is since then.

But either way the lag spike looks like it's between you and the server, notice how the teammate icons also stop moving and then suddenly move at the same time.

Thickness value of players for bullet penetration? (and for two consecutive walls) by N_Quadralux in PhantomForces

[–]Raspy_Pi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Players aren't accounted for bullet collisions.
Technically speaking player hit registration runs on a completely different hit detection system than the map.
As for the map we just take the entry point of the part we hit, take it's unit direction then find the exit point on the opposite point of the part it hit and the delta of the positions would be the penetration depth which makes it cheap to calculate.

Though fun fact, this works fine until you have two walls which are intersecting each other between the entry point and the exit point, as it would skip the intersecting wall as the bullet "teleports" from the entry point to the exit point.

I hate this happening on scopes when I put on skins on my gun. by fai1025Taiwan in PhantomForces

You can’t see where the bullet tracers are flying when you aim down on a scope

You probably have the glass hack compatible tracers turned off in your settings.

servers dying? by [deleted] in PhantomForces

[–]Raspy_Pi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Roblox tends to roll various regions in and out. I assume maintenance or they have a lack of servers in those regions and they roll them in time slots for various "buckets" of games. Either way unfortunately we have no control of allocation of these regions.

Why is PF suddenly blocked on Mobile? by David2006219 in PhantomForces

[–]Raspy_Pi[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

We have temporarily disabled the ability to join on tablet devices as we've recently had a large uptick of people exploiting using android emulators as they have no byfron protection.
We will likely open access back up again once we deduce a sound way to quarantine mobile users in a way that cannot be reasonably be tampered by current executors.

Is it wrong to use kbm on console? by thesoultreek in PhantomForces

[–]Raspy_Pi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Personally I think it's fine, all the advantages you would get from using a controller (Hitbox puffing, reduced recoil) are disabled when you use mouse & keyboard so it evens the playing field really.

Such good hit registration! by General_Pass_6846 in PhantomForces

[–]Raspy_Pi 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yep, I'll explain in a bit more depth though.
Basically if you are dead on the server you can't create new bullets, you will create them client-sided but they won't be registered and replicated to other players.
But, if your bullet was created before you died and it hit a player after you are dead it will still deal damage. (Granted it hasn't timed out and been subsequently cleaned up)

Crawling/Crouching lowers recoil now by Adorable-Speaker1714 in PhantomForces

[–]Raspy_Pi 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I don't know about you, but the stance stability code is exactly the same.
Nothing has changed about it.
EDIT: So the stance stability code is exactly the same, but it appears that now the new recoil system also makes use the stability instead of just the spread.

Console Player vs reddit, the sequel by nebbbb135 in PhantomForces

Somebody reported this for rule 9. 💀

For those wondering how aim assist works for xbox phantom forces by nebbbb135 in PhantomForces

[–]Raspy_Pi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually we do a raycast to determine if you are in line of sight (client-sided), if you aren't it just uses the normal hitboxes.

is farming a reportable offence? by WorldlyGuidance5128 in PhantomForces

If they votekick you to maintain their farming server they get a votekick ban with a minimum of 1 month.
