Summary0022117: Raptor stealth damage multiplier for 9s after exiting a wormhole does not work
Descriptionhttps://www.reddit.com/r/AIwar/comments/dsmh6f/ai_war_2_raptor_stealth_damage_multiplier/

I have only managed to trigger the damage multiplier once (see link above). In general, it seems very difficult to trigger, and I have no idea why. Thought it might not take the puase function into consideration when counting out the 9 second window, so tested for that as well. Makes no difference.

I used one of the stealth fleet quickstarts from the "Moderate" section for testing. These scenarios are unfortunately rather un-appealing if Raptors don't work as intended.

Could the bug be related to how planets are simulated if you don't have a planet focused in the UI? This might cause the ambush timer to not register properly.

Side note: It would be very useful for players to be able to see the ambush timer, including how much time remains. Additionally, it might be worth considering a visual component on shots fired with the damage multiplier active. Could be as simple as alternating the colour for the shots that are normally bright blue for Raptors. It would make it much easier to manage Raptors in a mixed fleet setting.

It's not a bonus for the Raptor using a wormhole - it's if the enemy target has just arrived. If it's been on the planet for less than 9s, you get the bonus against it.

Pulsar Tanks have the mechanic you think Raptors have.

Closing this as there was no bug.
