What i mean by the bullets. i i shoot at one guy and move my mouse to shoot another, the bullets will shoot between the two. if there is a third on between the two also, the bullets go through him.

Ok so I think I know what you mean. If I am correct what you are saying is happening is, as you turn the turret to face another enemy, the bullets fired at the previous enemy don't seem to hit - instead, just go straight through. If this is what you meant, then I just tested this, and what is actually happening is, although it looks like the bullet should hit, it is actually just missing. When playing it does look like it is going through, but this is just because the bullets move so quickly it's difficult to tell.
Hope this helps and here is an image to try and show what I mean, if this isn't the problem you're having, let me know.

I am really sorry if you have actually found a bug, but through further testing, of pausing the game, and looking at it in 3D space, I have found this to be another potential cause.

What you are looking it is two frames merged. Due to the speed of the bullets, it can cause a bit of an illusion. The first frame of this is taken with the two gobos further back and the bullets in black. The white bullets and the gobos further forward are from the second frame. If you look at where the gobo is in the second frame, the bullet appears to have passed threw it (red line) but really when the bullet was in that space, the gobo was further back, so not colliding. It is kind of difficult to visualise and understand but I hope this explains it.

EDIT:
Also as you can see, that 4th bullet from the left which was marked in green in the previous image, and looked as though it would hit, in fact didn't (as you can see the white bullet from the second frame) as the gobo had moved forward more so it just missed.

The link is in the post. TTG doesn't like the link for some reason (which is why I included a virus scan just to prove it was safe) so you have to replace the #'s with e's

Haha thanks. I am adding a slight boost to the speed up to round 10 (reduces after each round, until 0 at round 10) just so it isn't quite as slow starting.

Poetry wrote i did a few waves .. it didn't seem buggy? .. Just a bit slow .


I have now increased the speed up until round 9, after that the speed is the same as before. Just means the game is a little less slow starting now, whilst not being impossible still.
