Aliens unable to capture points

[midapiet]

Hello really enjoying this game so far!
But I think I have found a bug:

I wanted to see how quickly the aliens could spread across a map so I played a game of skirmish and kept going until I got the aliens down to their last to points. I then retreated my marines back to my starting point to let the aliens spread and I noticed that after recapturing two points they where unable to recapture anymore. What happened is that once the bunker on a point was destroyed, the point became untakable for a short period (Showing a lock icon on the point and the aliens ignored it). And after that a new bunker started getting build, never giving the aliens time to capture it.

That's intended, if a little bit confusing.

In an early version of the game, if worked exactly like you expected - aliens could capture everything. The problem was that some mutations could push you back really far when you almost beat the map.

That wasn't fun. Losing all your progress just made you want to give up, instead of fight back. That's why I added the locking (if you lose too many points).

If I recall, Terminus mode has the locks disabled. If you're looking for the ultimate challenge in the game, try the Terminus.
