Alleyway Bug V2

[Draqo2x]

There's a physics bug in the alley section where the ground transitions from a slope into a flat area (the section with the manhole cover). When walking across this spot, player movement suddenly changes and it feels like you're standing on a sloped or low-friction surface even though the ground appears flat. 

Walking over the flat patch causes your character to slide forward/abruptly stop.

You cannot immediately stop moving/sliding until you leave the area.

Movement feels like you're hitting a hidden ramp or ice surface.

Vehicles react like they hit an invisible object or bump.

Likely cause:
This looks like a collision issue rather than a visual bug. The ground mesh is probably slightly misaligned, has overlapping collision, or a bad displacement seam. The physics collision likely isn't perfectly flat even though the texture is, which causes the engine to treat it like a slope.

If rebuilding isn't possible, placing a properly aligned nodraw collision brush over the problem area could smooth out the physics and prevent sliding.

These can help confirm the issue:

vcollide_wireframe 1
mat_wireframe 1
cl_showpos 1

Aware and will be fixed for next map update

No, I'm sitting in a dead server, bored out of my mind. I've nothing better to do, so I figured I'd try to make some contributions to the forums, I apologize my technical writing is a bit bleak.
