No Damage?

[Initiate 1,306]

Has this ever happened to you? Midway through battle, you stop dealing any damage? I've had this several times on @HBTY2 and I don't do any damage until I refresh the browser. I re-enter, and two battles later, it happens again. Why is this, what can I do, and have you ever seen this?

Same happened to me until i started using flash player, it was mostly because of low RAM and windows would kill portion of game, either making some elements invisible or no damage. Just try flash player or client and see if problem is smaller

It's Tanki, What do you expect?

Ancient Bug, usually something stops communicating from your client (in this case your browser) and the server (the game). Best way to fix is clear your cache, be careful clearing that stuff, because it logs you out, and can erase other data you may value. I strongly recommend trying the Tranki Client. I used to have this A LOT when playing via browser, haven't had it happen since I returned, and I started using the client right before I left in 2017. 

Another issue could have been server congestion, which happens, even when there isn't a lot of people online computers are odd machines. Sometimes it just happens. 

There has been lagging issues on Tanki's end for years, they are still working to make the game more stable, and are switching to HTML5.

Happened to me too somehow.

 

One time a Striker fire his/her arcade rocket, no damage dealt to me....

Just yesterday, I was firing at Firebird point blank range with Vulan. I was doing damage, then suddenly I wasn't. After I respawned, then I was doing damage again. I've been in battles where damage and no damage went up and down like a yo-yo. One minute I'm doing damage, next minute I'm not, then next minute I am. All you can do is refresh (reload) the page and hope you get in before you're timed out or before the battle finishes. 

 

Geeze, I wonder why other tank games aren't like that. Hummm. Is Tanki missing something or are other tank games missing something or maybe not lagging is a special feature. Hummm?

Most other games aren't using Flash technologies, and Tanki was created with their own in house game engine, so it requires development further.

It might be a lag or your Internet is going haywire. Try reloading the game or if it still doesn't work, you could give mobile tanki a try

They've been having lag issues since Tanki came out of Beta. It was bad back then, then it got better, then bad again, then better and now it's getting bad again. All the while the players were getting blamed for the lag. Mods tell us to clear this cache, clear that cache, clean this, clean that....Clean, clean, clean. I use my computer in my personal business. Because of the type of business I'm involved in, I can't afford to have a dirty machine. So, you better believe it keep it clean and I still have lag. No, this is not just a send and receive email and surf the web kind of machine, it's bigger and stronger than that. If it was our machines fault for the lag, then it would never get better. But it does get better. Then the Devs tweak this and tweak that, upgrade this and upgrade that. Then it's lagging again. It's not the Dev's fault nor is it Tanki's fault, it's our own fault for having dirty machines. 

 

Sorry for the rant. I'm stepping off my soap box...at least for now.

Still happens to me from time to time, I'd just exit the game then re-enter it. Also maybe downloading the game unto your desktop instead of playing it on a browser can have an effect, not sure.

Check the Bugs & Glitches Reports first page/second post from Coopero:

 

 

Most common bugs and glitches

 

I can not deal any damage to opponents, pickup drops or capture points/flags. (Refresh fixes it for sometime)

Reasons: It's caused by false positive of anti-cheat system.

Possible solution: Unload all background software and processes/programs. Try to change the browser you are currently using for TO.

Sometimes you don't deal any damage when you enter a battle, but it automatically turns on upon the next respawn or after refreshing the page.
