Entering a cave from a 45 degree angle no longer works

Not sure when it broke, but you can no longer enter a cave from a 45 degree angle.

See gif:

Gates in Salem do work similarly to what is shown in OP - you have to approach directly when right-clicking, with too much angle you just collide without successfully opening it.

forum mod right in there with the qrd for the uninitiated
but.. is it based assistance for the new and confused? or is it cringe attention seeking via playing community notes?

That, my friends, is up to the beholder.

Update: I tested/double-checked and Salem's gates actually work really well, even from extreme angles.

This comparison can be relevant because Salem is basically running on the same core engine as current Haven (or at least an older version of it, for example it lacks push-out.)

Seems its specific to near 45 angles. Entering from the side still works.
Guess the dev's did there usual low level testing on the new cave entry/exit hitboxes. "... It goes in. Perfect, Done.".

Wonder why the cave-entry hitbox is so much larger than the cave-exit hitbox. Can't be related to something visual, as the vanilla client has intentional no support to show them.
