Description:
There is a small bridge on Lashkar Valley, where if you prone under it, you will take progressive burning damage as if you were standing next to a fire.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to C5-3, and prone under the small concrete bridge on the NE side (screenshot below)
2. Take damage until you die or move back out.

Perhaps its a case of The Bridge Troll Strikes Back?

Interesting, never seen that before.

So there wasn't anything on top of the bridge in this case, right?

Will check the bridge anyways, thanks for reporting!

When you crawl to too deep water the game will automatically force you up. That bridge, or any other object above blocks you from getting up, so it causes damage. Otherwise you'd be able to crawl underwater which would cause a lot of issues. I'd guess it was purposely coded that way since happens in vBF2 too. It could be fixed easily by lifting the bridge a little bit so you could simply duck under it, but I can't see any actual need for it.

Yeah that makes sense.

Guess i can fix it by simply adjusting the terrain under the bridge..

But yeah, just a minor issue.
