I have encountered two bugs with the exploder tank in 8.42. Not sure if they are/were in any other versions because I had been playing 8.35 until 8.42 came out.
Anyhow they both have to do with when the exploder tank actually explodes.
The first bug being the damage the explosion deals. The damage the game says is done (the red numbers) is often lower than the amount of health I have left (often by a few hundred, but sometimes 1 or 2 thousand) but I die regardless. I am not sure if the red numbers are wrong and it is actually doing more damage but I get tired of CONSTANTLY dying to 10200 damage with 10740 life left, and thats with nothing else around sitting in front of a factory.
The second bug has to do with the range of the explosion. The bomb says X damage to enemies with less damage with distance out to 600 range. I have not only taken damage, but FULL damage, from an explosion farther than 600 range away. The farthest away being roughly 675, but never as far out as 700 range. Also not sure whether that is because the range stated in the bombs description is wrong or what.
I hope you guys look into this because ALOT of people choose to play exploder tanks, so making them off limits in my games would make less people join/play.
