AI's incendiary mortar: infinite power

[Vexagon]

When the enemy builds an incendiary mortar, I can't possibly win anymore. It kills everything in one shot, buildings, defenses, wayvern tanks with tracks and two guns all fully upgraded, doesn't matter, it kills everything in one shot! D:

Please bring up balance concerns in the forum.

Last time I played, incendiary mortars were not uber-powerful. Unless zarel has been mucking with the stats, this sounds more like a bug than a balance issue.

A savegame showing the problem would be nice.

Hmm, I originally took the summary for hyperbole.

If it's not, more details are essential. Does this happen in every game? Does this only happen with a mod? Do you have any suspicious maps loaded? By "incendiary mortar" do you mean a Nexus Plasma Mortar? Can you provide a screenshot?

[Vexagon]

Thank you people for your replies. Obviously I provided too little information, it occurs:

Every build-in map I've played so far, including startup, highground and some 8 player maps. It occurs every time. I don't know what the Nexus Plasma Mortar is, but it is the brown-ish one with the stripes on it. I'm talking about the defense structure BTW, so the brown one with the stripes on it that sets a small field on fire on impact. A screenshot seemed irrelevant to me, I mean, there's nothing to see except the smoke of a unit that has just been killed?

And I never said it was a balance issue, it IS a glitch....

Anything else I forgot to mention? Thanks for your help people!

hao provided all the details I needed in his post on the announcement thread. I'll be looking into it now; thanks for your feedback.
