Veteran new shovels do non-special damage with folded push into light or heavy

Issue Type (Required):

Weapons

Issue Description (Required):

Tried this at meatgrinder (!) with both new veteran shovels, aka,
Munitorum Mk VII Sapper Shovel
Munitorum Mk III Sapper Shovel
Special light and special heavy work normal on their own, you do huge chunk of damage and then slight chunk when shovel gets out, BUT, if you use push with folded shovel then do light or heavy attack, you only do normal light or heavy damager respectably, and shovel unfolds.
I am not sure if its intended? You do the same animation as if you had your shovel folded, but you dont do the damage nor finishing animation as it should
I’ll try to bring a video tomorrow after work, need to try vermin versus as well until alpha is gone…

Alright, here we go, recorded it, very easy to replicate, not sure why it doesn’t work

Same thing goes for Ogryn shovels, just tested, is this intended mechanic? Thunderhammer was made so you can push into overhead heavy, but shovels don’t get the bonus of being able to deal heavy damage after push
