So yeah, I won an ancile and 2 aphids so I said what the heck...
My question is it seems like when I hit the button to fire all 3 aphids at once sometimes one of my spreads detonates at launch? Could this be happening and if so, can you provide a method to remedy this (like shoot them one at a time or something?).

Thought it sounded like a pretty pimp rig for a Leo so bought a Leo and decked him out. Now he's my favorite/primary hellraiser. Haven't had that malfunction yet. I'll keep an eye out and let ya know. |

Does it keep happening in all your games or did you post this after one game?
Are you able to replicate this issue in subsequent games?
Did you try shooting them solo to see if it happens as well?
Did the salvo perhaps hit the edge of an obstacle?
What maps were you on whenever this happens?
Were you close to a wall or obstacle when this happens?
Maybe try fighting in open space and see if it happens as well.
If this happens in open space, you might need to bring your aphid back to the repair shop. I hope it's still under warranty.

Yes its repeatable and it seems to only happen when I hit the big red button but only sometimes. |

It happened frequently enough for this guy.
War robots 2.5.0 Aphids explode itself on Leo
"Skip it at: 01:24 , 01:54 , 02:15 , 03:48 , 04:09 , 05:13 , 06:08 , 06:32 , 08:52 , 09:11"

His aphid detonate right on his weapon while the others fired just fine. Definitely not an user issue then.
I guess OP can try firing them individually or risk losing one aphid damage if he wants to continue using them before they get fixed.

At 3:46 In the video he launches them in sequence and the first one explodes.
Could it be a bug between Ancile and Aphid? Try without an Ancile and see if it continues. If it doesn't then try the Ancile+Aphid combo on another bot. Basically, vary things around to find a pattern. I'd try myself but don't have an Ancile.
Whatever it is it's a bug. I'm sure Pixo knows but you can always add pressure.

I love my Pothead too. And face the same issue. Sometimes, not as often as your aphits explode on launch, mine have the same malfunction. I think its a bug with Aphits an the Ancile. My Ancile is lv.4. Please give the Video to Pixonic. Perhaps they can do sometiing for old Mr. Pothead. BTW you are lucky. My Pothead dies faster. There is much more plasma around here.

I'm having this issue on every bot I use Aphids. Galahad. Jesse. Leo. Patton. Griffon. All of them. Randomly 1 salvo, upon launch, just... poof... gone. As a side note.. .it did seem that when I die my salvos that are still in the air are making it to the enemy now... not disappearing like they used to... so, yin and yang?  |

Could this be happening and if so, can you provide a method to remedy this (like shoot them one at a time or something?). I also run ancile/aphids setup for my Leo. I thought it's just an effect. Maybe it's an ancile bug because nothing happens when I run aphids from Gepard. |

Maybe it's an ancile bug because nothing happens when I run aphids from Gepard. I get it on all of my bots... I first noticed it on the Gala. And when I run them on the Leo, it's usually with a Thunder. So, I'd say not an Ancile issue. |

Yes definitely. With the ancile on the leo it happens to me all the time.

I'm having this issue on every bot I use Aphids. Ditto. It's almost like the missiles exhibit fratricide when they fly into each other. One of the reasons I usually try to stagger launches even against slow/immobile opponents. |

Remember projectiles can hit entities(other bots and your bot).The aphids hit the bot.I had issues like this since the buff to aphids.I concluded this because I experimented this before.In a few matches when I fired my aphids while suddenly moving sideways,the aphids towards the side I moved usually blew up.Next,I tried stopping before firing and relized little or no aphids blew up.This worked for me but you'll never know when you try.

Known issue for Pix. I was running a pothead Leo couple months ago and noticed the right side mount was doing that. Emailed Pix and they said they were aware of the issue and we're looking into how to fix it. Apparently they still haven't figured it out.

I'm sad to report it's not ancile related - I'm running aphid thunder leo, and I noticed yesterday my aphids popping up just in the thin air, almost immediately after launching.

I have noticed this on a Griff too. Might be related to the nerf..or more specific the lower arc trajectory.
