Valve squashes a decades old Half-Life bug.

After Half-Life’s 25th anniversary documentary resurfaced an old bug where an alien tentacle’s animation didn’t quite line up with the scientist it was supposedly carrying, Valve has finally issued a patch to fix it. If you want to know more, Valve programmer Ben Burbank wrote a thread on Mastodon about the difficulties fixing it. IGN has all the details.
