Bug with new Avatar action circle
So with the 2.38.3-5 update you can now buy the toast or change back to the redacted avatars so your pointer looks different....whoop go NIA with this great addition #sarcasm but I immediately spot one problem.
The action circle is linked to the avatar and the person in the art dept got the diameter of the redacted avatars wrong.
Please compare these screen shots:
Redacted style Avatar with the smaller action circle even though actions can be performed outside the circle:
Prime Avatar and default....bigger action circle matching the true action range.
@NianticBrian please forward to the appropriate people in the design team.

Im having this issue but the other way around, the default action circle is smaller than the new ones... I even have to get a few inches closer to make the hack available (even though I'm in range with the new avatars) here a couple pics comparing both avatars in the same position.
Mine is larger too, but I think is actually the right one. The portal get in ranger as soon as it passes the orange and enter the black area. Meanwhile the prime standard I could reach the portal a bit outside the circle since the begining. The redacted was extremely precisely, as soon as the line was touched.
Also, the classic cursors aren't displaying the fog/shadow when it moves. It's weird, since the prime cursor got it. Are they gonna charge for it?
The ring size is definitely rendered wrongly and causing confusion as it doesn't let you do action until you walk further in. And just a reminder, the ring at lower latitude is always smaller than the ring at higher latitude. The devs seems to have hard coded the radius for the new rings regardless of latitude.
Can confirm. Same issue here.
Despite I'm some huge distance from the portals, I yet can hack. So there's definitely a problem.
The same,Enl Redacted cursor circle is smaller than Prime Default one.Checked on three diffirent phones.
I've noticed these same problems, also, the redacted avatar rides slightly higher than the prime one. All the actions occur under the avatar whereas the actions on the prime avatar are on the same level. I love the prime avatar sizzle when attacked. It all happens below if you equip with the redacted avatar.
I too have noticed this issue. I reverted back to original avatar icon and it seems to be better, but not exactly as it used to be. Hope it can be resolved
When is a portal in range but not in range ?
Yes definitely needs addressing. Portals that have been hackable / deployable in the past with ingress, redacted and prime are now a few steps to far for the new redacted style avatar
There was an update on Twitter concerning this issue. https://t.co/CpyqSpMDbV:
This will be fixed in an upcoming release. In the meantime, equipping the default avatar should help. Please note the 40m requirement hasn't changed, but the visual is currently affected by your real-world location.
