*If you LAND (i.e., from orbit) your CN's in the corners, the runners won't stun them*

You're...... You have GOT to be kidding, right?
Surely that is not a core game mechanic??????

Yeah. Another quirk is if you start or land CNs near runners they will not be stunned. Save and reload the game and the same CNs will now be stunned. I would say this is most relevant on any of pastorhealers maps!

And that would be why I never detected it.
my SOP on a map is: land, pause, layout initial layout, and then Save, so I have a starting template.

On loading this, of course the stun immunity gets reset, and I suffer in silence while the rest of you playing on not-potatoes can dance merrily.

You'll be unstopable now! ;)

Glad I could be helpful! I may have known this game mechanic before this map but if so I'd forgotten it.

I rarely load maps, so I didn't notice the thing Dom mentioned but that's definitely helpful to know! Thanks, Dom ;)
