Idle snipers stalling end finale

Issue Description:
Idle snipers that never entered the playable area of the map are stalling the end mission finale because the objective requires players to eliminate all remaining enemies in the area. The finale does eventually just time out and allow players to complete the mission, but this involves standing around for a while as the occasional wave of specials spawn from various corners of the arena.

Steps to Reproduce:
Just play the mission with the Sniper Gauntlet modifier, you’ll see for yourself.

Mission Name (If Applicable):
Consignment Yard HL-17-36 - Sniper Gauntlet modifier

Platform:
Steam

Player ID:

Approx. Time of Issue & Timezone:
2am BST

Reproduction Rate:
Constant (100%)
(Although I’ve only played this mission with this modifier twice, it has happened both times)

Upload Supporting Evidence:


This screenshot was taken from underneath the drop-down entrance to the arena while looking in the direction of the rest of the map. Using the veteran’s action skill, you can see about 6 snipers that were completely motionless and were hiding out of bounds.

I can confirm that, snipers are sometimes idle, on any map. They are supposed to be specials but they behave like elites.

Had this similarly occur on another map.


Spotted some snipers chilling out in Alaska or something during the mission.


Upload of the mission type with modifiers.

Had this exact thing happen to me on that map finale. And that’s also exactly where the snipers were stalled at. We probably had to wait around an extra 8 minutes or so and it somehow resolved itself, got very lucky. Great report

What’s that mod on the right with the stats?

Leaderboard mod on Nexus

I can’t seem to find it. Could you link?
