New ghost peaking mechanic Rework or removal

[Rock ares]

i wanted to bring this up as a suggestion as this has become somewhat of a problem during my Crim roleplay.

recently there has been this new feature added into the server which is meant to stop "ghost peaking". As an idea it is great but how it has turned out is not so great. during some of my roleplay scenarios which has involved shooting there has been times i cannot shoot due to this feature even though im not "ghost peaking". 

In the clip linked down below you can see that i am trying to shoot but simply cannot due to this feature in the server, even though he can see me and i can see him. ghost peaking is where you shoot someone through the edge of the wall meaning that they cannot see you. which is why its called a "ghost" peak.  

this also happens when someone is has fallen over next to a broken pole or something and because of this feature you are unable to shoot

i personally believe that it should either be re worked or removed, if removed it should 100% be a rule break and if someone chooses to do this on purpose it should result in a ban as it does ruin peoples roleplay on the server. 

yes i know this is a roleplay server and shooting should not be the reason people play the server, but it is still apart of roleplay and it is extremely buggy which does make it unenjoyable for a lot of people effected by this.

I hope whoever reads this can write their opinion on this down bellow so i can see other peoples POV on it.

From the footage, you would not be able to see over the wall as its higher than your car. I would love to hear more feedback in regards to it being "extremely buggy" with some more examples.

i would have been able to see him as he is taller than the wall no?  

like @Nebsaid, he could see me and couldnt shoot as well so how would i not be able to see him?

my clip is just one example where its weird, there are many scenarios where this feature is buggy where you cant shoot at someone but they can shoot at you even tho.

i do like the idea of what your trying to do but i do feel like it does need some sort of change

Please let me know the locations and situations so I can see if I can re create your issue. It's imperative to get this situation and others on video so I can view it and make amendments

there is nowhere specific i can think of to be honest, but its more of in general most places are buggy, the main places i have had is roofs when aiming down, where i can see that i am visible but i am still unable to fire. some times its very situational as well, because if your in a car and you break a fence or break a lamp post in the middle of the road, you would not be able to shoot next to them due to this feature. I will have to try and get some clips for you archie as i dont have any more personally as i have never really thought to bring it up.

Whether you can see each other doesn't matter, the feature prevents you shooting if there is something in the way between your weapon and where your crosshair is positioned. For example in the clip your weapon is lower than the wall therefore would clip through the wall to be able to reach where you were aiming therefore it gets blocked however the other person's weapon is over the wall which is why they can shoot fine.
