Title: Retreat time - bug?
Post by: readyworm on July 10, 2020, 03:42 PM

I just played a game with a retreat time of 0 for land and rope attacks.  So when I drop a grenade from a rope, I come off the rope instantly and can't move.  However, when dropping dynamite I have the retreat time for land and rope.  Is this a bug?

Weapons you can drop that don't go anywhere (mine, dynamite, ming vase) always have a minimum of 5s retreat. There's some rationale if you think about it.

That's a good point :)  I'd never played a 0 retreat game before - was wondering why dynamite had retreat on the rope, but not grenades.  Thanks for the reply :)

A number of features are just glorified bugs. Wait until you get to how Longbow works.
