    Inverted air time bug

    device: nexus5
    os: latest android (not lollipop)
    game version: latest

    I've been stuck in missions which have Inverted air time. Any mission I start and has inverted air time I can't do it. The game registers the inverted air time from the first jump, but after that it doesn't register any (I've tested every way the bar doesn't grow after the first registration). One of the missions is "taking names" 1500coins and 1500XP.

    Hope for a quick fix.

    Will it be fixed and tested so it actually works? or do we get another version of inverted bug?

    I'm surprised that the bug is still there, because I found it many months ago!
    Basically, there is a check somewhere in the code like: "angle >= (180 - bias) AND angle <= (180 + bias)"
    But when you do a backflip or frontflip, the angle does not wrap around and can be less than 0 or greater than 360.
    So for some levels there is a workaround: do inverted air and return to original position (don't do frontflips or backflips)
    Shame...

    is there an update on this? it is ridiculous that it is not fixed by now.

    a cynical person (such as myself) would say that this an another attempt to try and extract money from people. i have wasted coins skipping over fruit machine tasks that involve inverted airtime.

    i am guessing that the tasks for the fruit machine are generated on-the-fly as it needs to connect to the internet, the least you could do is prevent it from generating inverted tasks until the big is fixed

    please could you update everyone on when we can expect this to be resolved.

    Perhaps a little too cynical in this case since its Android-only. Since the bug has existed for 4-5 months though... I can understand the frustration.

    fix it

    I have run into this issue too. You can still complete the missions though. You have to alternate your flips.
    The slot machine missions are a little easier, but the later trick missions are impossible.
    Please fix this. I have raged quiet a few times over this.

    As long as you were quiet and not bothering anyone, that's OK. Sorry couldn't help myself. Hope you manage to beat those later levels!

    Great news, thank you! When will 2.5.1 be available on Kindle HDX? I have 2.5.0 and no offer of an upgrade
