NoPhase Disabling Jump Pack/Steam Jump

[Mystoc]

 

was playing my controller and randomly noticing said powers were getting disabled I determined the cause was ice mastery epic power pool hibernate it causes me NoPhase then around 30 seconds later both powers disable and then reenable the exact second NoPhase goes away.

 

 

 

 

also I just noticed NoPhase disables the prestige base transporter as well?? this is a really odd bug

 

I am not sure if phase shift or other powers that cause NoPhase would cause this exact issue too or if its specific to just controllers epic hibernate, if anyone else can test this too please report back!

You can't use any powers while Hibernating.

This isn't while Hibernate is active, it's while the "nophase" effect is on that character, which kicks in 30 seconds after you activate any phase shift-like power and lasts for two minutes afterwards.

 

The bug OP is describing has been around since 2008 or so.

correct I click hibernate I cancel it then like 28-30 seconds later those powers become disabled, then when NoPhase ends they reenable right away.

 

very interesting that this is a long term bug since 2008 I guess its minor enough that it's not a huge bother. I only noticed it because I use Super Speed so use steam jump quite a bit when I need jump higher than normal.

Ah, I misunderstood. The NoPhase effect applies Disable_Toggle for 120 seconds, and many of the Prestige powers are flagged 'disallowed' when Disable_Toggle is active, which is why they can't be used.

Whether it's a bug or not I can't say. The OG dev team may have had a good reason to code them that way, though honestly I'm not entirely sure why.
