Samus Z-tether Graphical Glitch

[Candypants]

Asthetic glitch.

If Samus is grabbed with Koopa Klaw during her Z-tether animation the tether (laser whip thing) will stay on the ledge even if Samus dies.

I did not test this with other command grabs.

Does this only happen during the part where samus swings in? i.e not once shes hanging?

Been trying to reproduce it, but as I don't have a 2nd human at the moment, it's proving difficult to land the KK while the tether attaches.

Yes I think that;s the case. In the full video there is both examples i think.

Would you be up for testing it with other grabs and other tethers?

i've got no buddy to help me for a while =(

It doesn't happen with Diddy's side B:

Spoiler

I tried at other points during the tether and didn't happen either.

@ Narpas_sword You can use two controllers (or controller + keyboard if using Dolphin) and use Debug mode with Z frame advance. Of course use a customized profile to make Z do nothing.

Tried with Lucario and didn't happen either:

Yea i tried with debug but my timing was off and i went and tested other things instead because i got annoyed =p.

Thanks for that.
