Game bugs

• Grenade timer bugs. Both the sound effects and visual display occasionally fail to work properly when priming more than one grenade at a time. Forum link
• MOTD does not display correctly / cannot be scrolled. Forum link
• Demoman blue pipes do not always explode on contact. Forum link (May have been fixed in FF v2.0)
• Looping and repeating sounds get stuck. (i.e. Pyro's IC, HW Guy's AC) Workaround available, use console command snd_restart. Forum link
• Medic infection or heal plays sound but not not actually go through. From the Known bugs thread. (May have been fixed in FF v2.0)
• While constantly trying to cloak too soon, the timer to cloak again stops instead of counting down. From the Known bugs thread.

• Detpacks sometimes fail to destroy SG's. Forum Link

• SG and Dispenser health and ammo level displays do not update when the owning engineer is far away from them. (May have been fixed in FF v2.0)
• Jumping on an enemy or a teammates head when they are on an elevator (even without FF) will kill them. Forum link
• When an radiotagged enemy player is in view and you are dead, the radiotag box around the enemy does not tilt with the player's camera.

• Doors sometimes behave oddly: moving the wrong direction, sinking through floors, flying across the map, or displaying the skybox texture.

• Dispenser / SG health now displays properly on the HUD even if you are far away.
• Possible fix for CL_CopyExistingEntity crash.
