[BUG] Super Hokum just flew into a building and out

So this happened while I was playing in a Nighbird. Was chasing low HP super Hokum, almost got a full house kill when....it flew into a building... I hit record as soon as I saw that. It stayed there...

@CyberDymeSo both of you are ok with its appearing on the minimap being inside the building all the weay until 0:30, and then seeing it move from one building into another at 0:29? And then appearing out of building just out of nowhere? Or do you people never look at the minimap?

I see a helicoper parked on the ground between two buildings. You have to really zoom in on the picture to see it next to the tall white building.

I also see a gray empty helicoper icon on the minimap. It appears the pilot landed between two building, got out of the helicopter, repaired the helicopter with a repair tool, then got back in and took off.

But shortly after that I do see the helicopter fly into a building.

I'm not sure what to think. On the one hand we have the helicopter landing on the ground between two buildings. On the other hand we have it flying through buildings.

Looks like DICE netcode magic to me.

@OskooI_007 That first picture is destroyed helicompter. This amazing game works in such a way that minimap still shows an empty vehicle after it blow up. So in the first picture is destroyed Apache.

Seconds picture is indeed Hind that I only managed to capture for a split second when it was moving from one building to another. Then later is appeared out of the same building few seconds later.

  Apparently there's no collision detection for those two building then. An easy test would be trying to fly through them.

    In Kaleidoscope you can fall into the elevator shaft and get stuck in there if you jump out of an aircraft near the outer wall on the side where there are elevators on the skyscrapers. You then end up at the bottom of the shaft immune to damage, but there are a few holes you can shoot thru.
