FiB V3: Player-Owned Spotlight Often Casting Broken Shadows

While testing the new FiB options in my game, I came across this very constant behavior of my player’s flashlight (a spotlight) casting broken shadows consistently on geometry.
Here are a couple examples:


And here is a video to show them in motion:

All players are outfitted with a flashlight, just press 1 to equip or open your inventory with the ` key. The building my footage was filmed is just ahead of the spawn.

In case this may be causing the issue, player animations are what cause the light to move and they aren’t replicated, but instead all played on local animators (sorry jovanni).

Hello! I am in the process of checking over bug reports and following up on some bugs that haven’t received any activity in a while.
Is this issue still occurring or can you confirm that this bug has been resolved?

I don’t see this as much now, but I’ll have a test when I get on Roblox Studio, so I’m not sure.
