Steps to Reproduce

Aim towards an enemy (players, guards, etc.) with the Lock-On Pistol, and wait for the four magenta markers to appear around the enemy you’re aiming at.

Expected Result

When pressing fire while the markers are active on an enemy, each marker will equal one shot automatically fired which will always hit the player as long as they stay in your lock-on radius.

Observed Result

The shots fired simply go in the direction of the player’s crosshairs instead of the enemy the weapon is locked on to.

Additional Notes

looking into this bug, ive seen it reported over a year ago in feb 2024. i dont know if this is a returning issue that has been previously resolved, or if it hasn’t been fixed at all. the lock on pistol has also been subject to the occasional “weapon test” where an unreleased weapon is tested by changing the stats of an existing one (which will mess with weapons in creative A LOT)
