this is because it is pre jungle inferno, invalid

You need to make it like this for it to show up checked:

I edited your post to fix the checkboxes.

This is a bug with TC2 because the Short Circuit was changed in Jungle Inferno and was unfinished at the time of the leak we're using. As such, this is an out-of-scope bug and will not be fixed.

The orb was actually added in 2018 according to tf2 wiki

[Yttrium-tYcLief]

Sorry. Yes, it was updated to the modern behavior with Blue Moon, but my guess is they were testing those changes with the current build. Either way, it's out-of-scope, since it's not core to testing.

[Boshikuso]

Okay, good to know. Hopefully it doesn't break the orb when the update is officially supported lol

[Boshikuso]

should i bother making a post about how the medigun and kritzkrieg have no healing audio? @Yttrium-tYcLief

what update? I think you are getting confused here.

[treacherousfiend]

It won't, coms isn't just going to send the entire build (for several reasons including this), but we have no reason to touch short circuit so no changes.

Also I think medigun is fixed as of recently?

[Boshikuso]

I'm on most recent build, just tested and its not present

This has been supposedly resolved and will be included in next release.

[treacherousfiend]

its fixed as of commit d77d41c

[Boshikuso]

Excellent! you guys are so quick, i love it

Build git

[treacherousfiend]

the public builds are not the most recent, they just are when coms decides to actually call it a release

[Boshikuso]

That's understandable

[Boshikuso]

So offtopic... you think valve will ever adopt this for real? I personally got a 200+ fps boost. I need this in my life.

The work being done in this project, assuming Valve will be open to the idea, will be pulled forward. They will not simply switch to our branch.

This was fixed in #212, there just hasn't been a release that included it yet.

200 is nothing yet, friend.

[treacherousfiend]

offtopic should probably be done in the discord, not here

@Yttrium-tYcLief please lock this and limit to collaborators to prevent even more spam. For such question the discord should be used.
