<div class="IPBDescription">egg hatches only at original location</div>Hello Dev team,

I was experimenting around with Alien today and noticed that there is a bug with Shift Hatch ability where the egg will only spawn at the first location even if you move it with Echo. I can replicate the issue all the time, and did not see this in the previous builds. Maybe something broke when you guys changed the way Hatch works. Hope you guys can fix get this working again in future patches.

<b>How to replicate</b>
1. Create Echo shift
2. Echo the shift to another location
3. Hatch some eggs with the moved shift
4. Find eggs hatching in the original location

    I actually made a video of this last night after finding out about it yesterday. I sent a message to Charlie but now that everyone knows, I'll give you the video.

    Ah okay. As long as the dev knows it should be good.
    Btw, where would be the right place to notify these kind of finding? I don't think this bug can really be exploited, but I'm sure there are things that should be kept secret until fixed.

    Why was the change made to remove the manual egg placement?
