Meteor Cancelling can be jump buffered

[Chevy]

Version: 3.6b

This has happened on multiple set-ups and what-not pretty sure confirmed.

If you are holding jump(stick or button) as you pass through the (now 12 frame) meteor cancel window, you'll automatically jump the first frame. You can still trigger the fail window by letting go of jump or mis-timing an up-b during the no cancel window, but as long as you press and keep held the jump button after being hit you'll do it the first possible frame.

Curiously, you can also buffer a jump out of regular meteor hit-stun if you do happen to trigger the fail window.

Also from another thread:

Multijumpers can tap jump before the normal meteor cancel delay when meteored for some reason. It doesn't cancel out the KB if they do that (they still go down), but it does allow them to act.

@ Chevy , in your testing who were the characters? Does it happen with anyone?

I tested it with Ganondorf d-air on Samus at many percents. I had read that thread earlier and my results were completely different. For one, it was always a 12 frame window, not 8, and spamming up-b properly triggered the fail window for me. Also, Toaster said that it counts down during hitlag, but the 12 frame window always started after launch for me.
