[Known] Leaving Scenes are too abrupt now at edge of scenes

Title: Leaving Scenes are too abrupt now at edge of scenes
Reproduction Rate: 80%
Blocker? NO

Details: In most scenes, including road encounters, now when near the edge of the scene, there is no fade out. Just an abrupt exiting the scene. This is terrible for those instanced encounters, as they are then gone and can't re-enter. Edges of scenes use to fade out, like they still do at entry/exits. But not anymore.

Steps to Reproduce:
Go to edge of a scene that is not an exit, and find that you abruptly leave the scene now.

Bug #: 52720, thank you
@Winfield

Edit: This bug report is for the encounter scenes. These will have to be fixed per scene as the issue is seemingly not universal for all scene fade outs. So I will need the others reported as they are found I'm afraid.

 

I shall look around and try other scenes. Thanks!

 

Area: Plains Road Encounter (RandomEncounter_Plains01_Road/Undead_Tier2) Loc: (-69.5, 33.0, 8.6) - Seems OK, but did not test all directions.


I found the bug in Sequanna Colosus too:

Area: Sequanna Colossus (Novia_R4_POI_SequanaColossus) Loc: (-315.0, 79.5, 173.7) - HAS ABRUPT TRANSITION - in this area, not everywhere. Seems OK near the exits.

The word NOVIA appears, then disappears for a while (presumably when the fade out should start?) ... then I walk very slowly a bit more see the word NOVIA real fast then poof to the Novia map.

I hope the video helps a little.
