Bugs

Bugs are errors in the coding of the program. There are a few annoying bugs in the Tanks games

Indestructible mode
This happens when a player's health is very low (usually < 1). The health is usually a crazy decimal number like 0.0000025. No weapon can directly destroy the player because his health level cannot get lower than 0 and weapons take away health by whole numbers. The workings of this bug still have yet to be explained.

NaN
NaN stands for Not a Number and this happens usually in the computer mode.

The computer who goes into NaN can be referred to as a party pooper or party stopper because the game cannot go on when a NaN appears.

Computer doesn't fire
The computer has its shot ready, but doesn't fire. Pretty self-explanatory

Negative parachutes
Sometimes the program loses count and you can have negative parachutes. Usually, the number goes to -1 and then you're really out of parachutes. But sometimes you can have like -11 parachutes and you still physically have parachutes.

Weapon scams
You purchase a weapon, and it doesn't show up in your weapon selector. The rip-off is very shady. You can't tell until you play. It's cheap.

If this happens, do not waste any more money buying those weapons

Please note that not all weapons are affected.

Teleport during fire
When you press the fire button, you can still teleport to another location so long as all the parts of the weapon launched have not dropped or exploded. If you click Fire, then click Teleport, and wait until it is someone else's turn, you can teleport that player at will.

Invisibility
Sometimes, teleportation at just the right moment can result in a player becoming invisible.

Air strike
In Tanks V2 the computer players can buy air strike weapon. However, when they use it, the computer does not pick where to strike. It allows a human to pick.
