SUBTERFUGE Forums

I set up some advance orders in time machine and now I can't cancel them. The 'x' button in the time machine box is not responsive. If I move forward in time to the launch point and then click on the red 'Canvel launch' button the sub disappears temporarily and then immediately reappears.

The only time I have ever come across this is when I didn't have connectivity when trying to do something.

If you know that your connection isn't the problem, you may want to submit this post as a bug report.

I'm having the same problem right now. Might cost me the current game

Edit:
I can change the amount of drillers, but I can't cancel the order. Weird.

sorry about this one, folks, it's on our list and we're working our way through the bugs as fast as we can. appreciate your patience!

Yep, getting same issue. Is it happening in both full and non-paid version?

I'm currently non-paid.

It is the same in the paid version.

I have found a kind of workaround. You need to have the game open as you reach the actual time the launch is due, with the sub selected. As the countdown reaches 1 second to launch, hit cancel. It flashed on again as about to launch. Hit cancel again and the launch aborts.

Something else I noticed is I couldn't set the drillers to 0. Sub was going from a factory and had 60 drillers. Wouldn't let me go below 1 on the sub.

(Fantastic game, btw.)

This is actually by design, to prevent you from sending an empty sub on accident.

1) You load up a sub by sending either 1 or more drillers, or 1 or more specialists.
2) If you remove the drillers and you have no specialists onboard, the game should keep 1 driller there.
3) If you want to cancel the sub completely, tap the Cancel button on the sub popup when it's about to launch, or tap the X button in the time machine list.

Just to add precedence to this bug, this bug just cost me a game.... Ughhhh so annoying, I had everything planned and now I've had to give up... I am in love with this game, annoyed at the bugs but completely understand you're working through them. If this one could be a priority please!!!!

Thanks! Although I can't cancel the sub, setting it to 1 will be good enough for my purposes.
