Cannot build the bomb

[Pyrin1701]

I have $90,000, and over 2500 in Knowledge points, and yet the game will not allow me to build the bomb to move on to the next era. What the ♥♥♥♥ is going on here?

Uranium?

[Pyrin1701]

I have Uranium. Sadly, it's not listed as one of the needs when you mouse over the button. It says, $10,000 and 1000 Knowledge points. I have both, but it will not allow me to build the bomb. The button is greyed out, and when I click on it anyway to try, it just bleeps at me.

Do you have enough power for the building?

[Kunovega]

Not sure what to suggest, I just did a quick test and in just a few minutes I was able to start building a bomb without any problems.

You need enough money, knowledge points, employees and power to the building. Click build the bomb and then wait, the button will grey out again and the bomb building status bar begins to fill up, it's not instant, it takes time to build

I've had no trouble building the bomb in other scenarios, I've done it before, I know how it's done, it's not hard. It never gives me the option to build it in only this scenario. I even tried to pick a different option one time, and that time I was able to build the bomb on the side, but if I pick the option where I have to build the bomb, it never gives me the chance too.

Your original post doesn't bother to mention that it only happens in one specific mission, or even which mission. Sounds like a bug you should be reporting to tech support.

Upon reloading the game it finally allowed me to build the bomb, I dont know why it was not working before, but whatever glitch was causing it seems to have been remedied since then and now the game works as intended. This thread can be closed out.

I'm having the same problem! I have enough power, uranium, and money but I can't get it to start building the bomb. Does anyone have any tips? I've tried restarting the game, and destroying/rebuilding the facility.

Hi Trik,

Thanks in advance.

Make sure none of your ancient ruins burnt down or got destroyed. You need all four still functioning and one set to send money to your Swiss bank account.

Solved...waited in x4 time untill 1989 end of cold war...wall of Berlin...
Then the button of the bomb became avalaible
