Repairs difficult to initiate during attacks

[whiskeysquared]

I’m not sure if it’s intentional or a bug but the repair tool shows I can’t repair a structure (that I know does indeed need repairs) during bug attacks (the structure I’m trying to repair is actively being attacked). Regardless of structure, this happens for bunkers, walls and everything else. It’s like the build/repair tool finds a small millimeter of surface area where it looks like you can repair it but it goes away in a split second and presents as un-repairable.

From testing it would seem you can't rep while a bug is actively hitting a structure. if it's one bug the window to rep is determined by that bug's attack rate. If there are multiple bugs hitting the structure at different time, the window to rep is tiny and/ or non-existent. I'm assuming this is intended as you need to sweep the bugs off before repping.

Could be wrong about this, but as someone who dedicates a fair amount to "combat repping" this is what I've deduced so far.

That Arachnid Menace will prevent you from repairing buildings as long as they are attacking the structures, so put them down, Trooper, before repairing!

If it is a different issue you are seeing though, please let us know!

Ok. It happened so reliably that I suspected this was intentional. It makes sense as almost a mini-game to clear before repairing. Perhaps the developers could consider allowing repairs when actively taking damage IF there are multiple troopers doing the repair.
