Twice now antag tokens have failed to actually give me an antagonist role. I'm not sure if it's just broken for me or everyone. Normal RNG antag works, but if I try to use my tokens it messes up. Since there's not really a workaround on my end I figured it would be considered major?
I ahelped and Cirrial said this, so maybe he might be able to give more info
Admin PM from-Cirrial: i've refunded your token, your antag status is broken in a way i've never seen, so i guess consider yourself a hardmode traitor
The end of the round report says this:
[b]Ms. Licorice (played by Sord213) was a !
The was successful!

This happens a lot. From my experience I'd go as far as to say 50/50 as to whether it works.

I wish I could give more info, but when I said "broken in a way I've never seen" I meant everything I could normally use to debug someone's traitor status was fucking up and providing no information. Suffice to say, I'm looking into it (and a bunch of other round start issues) but I can't promise any quick fixes.
The most frustrating thing about this particular bug is it prevents us from just turning you into a new type of traitor, because the game thinks you already ARE a traitor, albeit a weird fucked up and broken type. It also prevents us from removing your traitor status, because the game doesn't think you're a proper traitor. It's SUPER BROKEN.
For now, if your antag token fucks up, ahelp and ask for a token refund. Individual admins will probably vary on whether they consider you still a traitor for the round, so maybe ask for a clarification on that too.

This is basically just turning into my journal of my efforts to find and track this bug, but:
So far known to happen in traitor mode.
