Just wanted to report a harmless visual bug that I've been seeing lately but never really noticed before,

The bug occurs when a player uses a sniper rifle, they zoom in on the victim and start shooting them.. but then at the same time other players around see the attacker with the sniper shooting himself in the back?, this includes blood coming from where he's shooting himself.

Once again harmless issue that doesn't really cause any problems, it's just damn annoying once you know about it.

I also feel as though your statement is invalid as I've only just noticed it myself and I've been playing samp since 2007.

I know this bug long time ago.. This bug occurs in rare occasions.

I never seen it even when there are events where every player tries to shoot the opposite team's player with a sniper.

Not so rare, it's annoying cause for example, if there's a hidden sniper in the area, everyone will know that there's a sniper around

I saw some examples like administrators ban a guy because they think he using Health Hack , because this looks like someone shooting at him lol

Yeah thats stupid because the guy who got banned just had his sniper zoomed right in when he was shooting..

So it seems to me now that instead of the 'sniper zoom mode' moving the camera to zoom in, it actually moves your position ahead of the gun.. so it's partially interpreted that way by other clients.

Thats the best way I can explain it.

I only noticed this bug when used a custom blood effect

This is known as sniper bug usually on servers.
This happens when the other player is sniper bugged and when you shoot him he doesnt take dmg and it sees as ur shooting yourself.A kick would fix it.
