Flamers (possibly bombers + snipers too) can kick players who are pinned by a dog

Issue Type (Required):

Enemy Mechanics

Issue Description (Required):

As far as I know enemies arent supposed to target and hurt you while a dog is pinning you, and if they do, the dog is supposed to fly off. However when a flamer is in melee range while a dog pins the player, the flamer will kick the player rapidly and repeatedly until he’s dead without knocking the dog off

Since snipers and bombers also have a kick move I assume they do the same but so far it’s only happened to me with flamers (since they tend to stick around melee range more I assume)

Steps to Reproduce (Required):

  1. Get pinned by a dog while a flamer is in melee range (might require specific angle so the flamer doesn’t get knocked back by the pounce, unsure about specifics and game does not give the tools to test it)
  2. watch as the flamer rapidly curbstomps you to death while disabled

Reproduction Rate (Required):

Constant (100%) (but the circumstances are rare and specific)

Platform (Required):

PC - Steam

Flamers (and monstrosities) are the exception to the rule of not being able to be targeted while hit by a mutant or a dog so it is intended that they can target you.

It is definitely annoying however that they can kick you without the dog being knocked off not sure if that part is intended or an oversight.
