i'm using the latest patch-upgrade, i use qormkit with fileoverride and wkmagic. i connected two pc with an ethernet cable, and i played with direct tcp/ip: rope knocking was off:eek:
is it a known issue or is it caused by wormkit/wkmagic?

Rope knocking cannot be enabled in LAN or direct IP games as of now, sorree.

is it a bug or is it made intentionally?

It's just the lack of a feature. There never was a feature put in in the first place.
