Problem with Hurricane (bug?)

Kos023 · January 2nd, 2009, 07:46 PM

I have been playing quite a lot of BugWave lately, I really enjoy the game and I have found that using a combo of a Ring of Fire and a Hurricane separated by one or two great walls can be extremely efficient, especially when juggling the bugs. However, there seems to be a bug with the hurricane tower where the animation on top of the tower stops me from clicking on it (or any tower near it for that matter) and upgrading it. The only solution I have found is to juggle the bugs away from the tower, so I can upgrade it, but at higher levels with the greater range, it is difficult to do at times.

There has to be a way to make it so that the animation on top does not stop th player from selecting the tower. As it is right now, I'll put down and upgrade all the towers I want to have around the hurricane, and then put down the hurricane and upgrade it, while trying not to give it time to shoot at creeps until it is completely upgraded. It works, but requires a lot of timing and plenty of cash on hand to do it. If at some point in the process the hurricane activates, I end up being unable to select any tower under the hurricane animation and have steer the bugs away. On a level 3-4 hurricane, that's not exactly easy.

Is it supposed to be like this? Or is it a bug?

I wanted to post the exact same problem, but forgot to

I would say it's a bug. Since I hate juggling it's a real pain in the behind...

I don't juggle but this bug does rankle me nonetheless.
The bug happens for any of the "area effect" animations: earthquake, ring of fire, tsunami, hurricane. It's just most noticeable on hurricane since the animation is longest. While the animation is on, you can't click any of the objects "below" the animation

My maze of twisty little passages is therefore not as twisty as I'd like ...

You're right, this is definitly a bug. We will resolve it in Version 2 (most probably at the end of january). Thank you for pointing me to it.

And Thank you! for your quick feedback. BugWave is one of my favorite TD right now.
