Alright, I finally have a screenshot to help make my case here.

Hitboxes for Left / Right Arms or Torso have been cross-wired.

Mechs Affected: Stalker (all variants to what I can tell)

Issue: Being hit on the Left or Right arm/torso can lead to damage being registered to the opposite Right or Left arm/torso.

Pictured:
I was turned and marching so my RIGHT side of the 'mech was facing the Large Lasers / Clan Large / ER Large that the enemy was sniping with. I had rotated because my left side was already partially damaged.However the hit boxes show that my LEFT side was blown out. The only shots I took all showed markers on the screen as coming from the RIGHT.

I feel this issue has happened in multiple matches but this is the first time I've had some kind of screen shot capture to work with.

I am aware that the arm lifts above the Stalker. But I don't feel that explains why full right-side hits blew out my left side Torso.

Well, to tighten up your case you might consider entering testing ground with a pal and get shot at with SL - make a video of it showing right-side hit damaging left-side components.

For that you need 2 people with active premium time.

HSR / lag / ping issue.

You might see that your Torso has turned before the enemy fired, but from the enemy's point of view he shot you before you turned.

However, based on how HSR works his shot was valid and you were hit on the left torso.
