Summary0007411: Nukes sometimes don't go off, accruing AIP but no explosion
DescriptionThis has been a long time bug, and I guess it's still happening.

It's weird in that the bug is intermittent, in the save I attached the nuke only doesn't go off about 50% of the time, and 50% of it works?

Well anyway, it has massive gameplay implications if the nuke doesn't actually work when you want it to.

In the save, the nuke is already built on planet Ishas (bottom right), and is by the wormhole to Ginicrex. Send it through the wormhole and it may or may not explode. You may have to re-load the save several times to replicate the bug.

Please fix.

edit: I should note that on the planet in question (Ginicrex) there are no "anti-missile defense systems" or whatever it's called. The planet should be vulnerable to nukes.

Just wanted to add that nukes aren't the only missiles that don't go off sometimes. I've noticed that Tachyon Missiles sometimes don't detonate as well. This could be a problem for all missiles.

Yep, I've seen this too, with an EMP warhead in my case.

For 5.036:

* Fixed a longstanding bug where an Ion Cannon killing a warhead would cause it to not properly detonate as if it had been killed by a Warhead Interceptor.

Thanks :)
