Problem clicking on a camp to attack it

Hi,

When attacking a camp, it is often hard to click & send the attack.

This a is a problem when zoomed-in 100%

If you zoom out a little; the click always works the first time. A number of players in my guild confirm this.

It is sometimes very hard to click on a camp to attack in all zoom levels and its impossible to click to attack when the troop icon(s) popup to the left not centered. This happens most when there is only 1 troop type in camp but have also seen with 2 troop types.

White Castle in Traitors is a real pain in when it comes to attack it (regardless of zoom level)

Generally, I have this problem most with castles and witch towers, even in cases when the popup doesn't block the building, I click on it and nothing happens. I found that if I click on the place where the general enters, I can make it work okay. As to zoom levels - there are zooms where it is easier and others where it is harder to find the right place to click but I can't say that a closer zoom works better every time.

Agree its castles and witch towers, very very rarely camps that have this issue
Sometimes I think clicking really quickly helps, others not, just seems to be random

Most pointless feature added to game imo. I dont get what the popup was supposed to add to the game.
Probably a dev found some code and went ooo look what I can do, rather than doing something useful and fixing some bugs.

same on Bandits nest. The closest leader camp to the landing zone on the left is particularly hard to attack. It's actually impossible to attack it "on the first try", you have to make the annoying popup show then move your cursor away and move it back on the camp.

Thanks for the hint on making the pop-up appear, waiting for it to go-away and then trying to click - I'll give it a go.

As a newbie... i must say I do like the pop-up that tells you who's in the camp... it is helpful whilst you're not familiar with the adventure...

Al.

I mentioned this back in November when it came live but still nothing done about it

It's a feature that appeared when they introduced the whole mouse over thing for the camps. We have complained since then and we have heard nothing so I guess it's working as intended.

LMAO thats about the size of it

from my experience it is very active in Traitors adventure lately, in my case, but found the cure for it, and it works 100% every time.
When you first get your mouse pointer over the camp i gets "stucked" and stops responding to clicking, i tried myself clicking like mad repeatedly and that didnt help too so just move it away of the camp and next try it will most surely work.
Hope this helps :)

Are the devs looking into this? Its really annoying that 'improvements' to the game actually hinder playability forcing people to click the same object many times for the desired response. Similarly trying to find and click collectibles is more difficult with the extra popups added recently too.

+1 - I have this issue when trying to attack witch towers (RB), dark castles (BK) and white castles (Traitors), especially on my laptop with a touchpad, but even just with a normal mouse, hardly ever attacks first time I click on the leader. Urgh123's suggestion, to move away and then to click does work, but it is a pain that there is a problem at all.

I practised by making attacks with 1r and retreating immediately until I found a way that works for me nearly everytime.

In Traitors, I found that if I zoom in until all participating camps are just on screen, but only the lower half of the White Castle is just visible in the top right corner, then the popups do not interfere with target selections.

Traitors is a nice short adventure, made into one of the longest adventures by these ridiculously frustrating pop-ups.

Addition - Just to repeat what others have said the best "fix" is to click on the entry point of enemy camps and the exit point of your generals camps (and even this is an excise in frustration

I think they've fixed it. I haven't had problems with this since last maintenance.

Selecting the camp(s) is indeed much more difficult than it was. I've found if I 'come in' with the pointer from the left/bottom left and then into the corner of the camp I have better luck (in other words, completely avoiding the tool-tip). This seems to also help when camps are closely nested (again, trying to avoid the tool-tips entirely). I agree castles/towers seem to be much harder than other camps.
I happen to like being able to see my troops in a camp quickly, but I'd happily give it up for having selecting the camps easier like it used to be.
