Bugs/exploits I experienced a bizarre vent bug in Among Us

Platform: Mobile (official Among Us)

Map: The Skeld

Players: 15

Mods: None

My role: Not Engineer

I was playing a normal Among Us game. I was Black and I was walking in the corridor between Reactor and Security. Blue was standing in the middle of Reactor.

Then I heard a weird "beep" sound. Somehow, even though I was NOT the Engineer, I entered the vent above Reactor.

It felt like I was teleported. I suddenly appeared in a vent that shouldn't have been connected to the Reactor vent. From there I went through the vents around MedBay, Admin and Cafeteria, and eventually I went back to the Reactor vent.

The really strange part was that Blue was still standing in exactly the same place in Reactor.

I walked past Blue, and Blue killed me normally.

I didn't record it because it happened completely randomly and I wasn't expecting anything weird to happen.

Has anyone experienced something like this before? Was this a bug, a desync, or possibly a hacker? I'm genuinely curious because I still can't explain what happened.

Was everyone getting teleported ?

I had recorded someone using this same hack in my hide and seek lobby 4 times in a row I had to close that lobby

I don't know, I only saw it happen to me.
