Issues and Bug Reporting

Summary

Player Counter incorrectly removes / decrements a player when the player is only downed (DBNO) and gets picked up/carried by the Murderer, or when the Murderer enters a dressing room / Umkleidekabine. The counter should only count a player as eliminated when they are fully eliminated (dead, no revive possible).

Steps to Reproduce

1. Murder vs Survivors map with DBNO and Player Counter “MURDER KILLS FOR WIN” (required players = 0).

2. Survivors = Team 1 (classes 1-7), Murderer = Team 2 / Class 10.

3. Knock a Survivor with the Murderer.

4. Pick up / carry the downed Survivor → Player Counter immediately decrements the player (treats him as eliminated).

5.The Murderer enters a dressing room / Umkleidekabine (without being downed) → the Player Counter removes the Murderer and the game ends prematurely.

Expected Result

The Player Counter should only decrement when a player is fully eliminated (When Eliminated from Elimination Manager).
Downed + carried players should still count as alive until they are actually killed.
When the Murderer enters a dressing room to change skin or similar, the game should not end and the counter should not remove the Murderer or any Survivors.

Observed Result

The counter treats downed + carried players as eliminated.
Additionally, when the Murderer enters a dressing room, the Player Counter removes the Murderer and the game ends immediately, even though the Murderer is only changing appearance and no one was eliminated.

MURDER VS SURVIVOR MAP BUG ISSUE WITH PLAYER COUNTER

Additional Notes

This is a long-standing issue for Murder vs Survivors / Murder Mystery maps. Many creators have to disable “Tragen erlauben / Allow Carry” because of this bug, even though carrying downed players is a desired gameplay feature.
The Player Counter should only react to real eliminations, not to DBNO pickup/carry states or when the Murderer enters a dressing room.
