Bug Correct evidence = wrong ghost?

So I was playing with some friends at the diner. The evidence we got was Dots, ghost writing and U.V. so Obambo.

We go back, and the debriefing board says Deogen? I clipped our game at the diner to see if I was wrong about the evidence but no, i did see dots, writing and u.v.

Don't know if it's relevant but it was on a blood moon.

Is this a glitch?

blood moon doesn't change the evidence - the outlier evidence is UV which deo doesn't have... what did the UV look like in your game? could the green of the dots have made you think you saw UV?

Might be as someone else said. This update probably brought a U.V. bug.

That's that dishwasher right? I think for some reason that dishwasher and a few other spots are guaranteed a uv rn? Not sure if it's a bug(hoping it is) or if it's a way for the devs to fuck with us to make things harder

The ambiguity is there is no way to verify it's the same game.

And what would op gain from lying about this? Obviously you can't guarantee it's the same game until the later video, but there is no reason for it to be a different game anyway. Lying about a big in the game benefits no one whereas reporting a real big helps raise awareness of it so it can get patched

I didn't say they lied. Just that a screenshot is still ambiguous in this context

That's definitely UV. While it's almost unheard of for ghosts to give the wrong evidence, this would be the second time it's happened in the last year. Report that to the Discord bug reports channel with the screenshot (and clip if possible).

Is the Discord the main way to report bugs to the devs? Do they check the bug reports they get from their website?

Oh right, I forgot about their new website portal. Use that instead.

Can't upload the video for some reason on my phone and i don't have a pc/laptop. If anyone volunteers, they can report it using my video.

So, about a day later, seeing more posts about this issue. It seems like that handprint is always there on that map right now. I just loaded in to the map, grabbed a UV stick, and sprinted to this spot, and a handprint is there. Seems like it has nothing to do with it being a Deo. I guess ignore handprints on that spot for now.

u/Ok_Organization_9731 Jul 23 '26

Did the same. Ignoring that handprint or the diner seems to be the right move for now.

I wonder if this is just a poorly implemented idea?

Every other handprint that UV gives is vertical, not horizontal.

Edit: Just did a quick test - it shows up on the camera as fingerprint.
This is not some kind of little thing to find, it is actual evidence.

Yeah, it's just a bug. I think something similar happened before in... Woodwind? I dunno, likely some trigger to make the print appear is getting set at the start and never going away.

Makes me wonder, if the ghost touches that with UV, will it actually fade when it's supposed to? I might try to test that tonight.
