Fixed for the next release; not yet tried with real shots.
Shippedstep 8 of 8
A player reported that enemies' death animations played late on the client's screen. The next release reports an enemy as dead as soon as it starts to fall, so friends see the death without a three second wait. On two real games a kill was counted once and the corpses ended up in the same place.
