*Usless Glitch!

Not sure if this has been found yet, but spotted a (cool?) completely useless glitch, that enables you to ''aim'' the automatic turn ending weapons (the ones in which you use the cursor to aim) before you actually fire and finish your turn! e.g. air strike, teleport, and girder! Just have a look at the replay and you'll see what i mean. :D

Been known for quite a long time now. If you're in mid-air and then swap to that weapon and choose the target before you land, you can fire it at a later time.

You may enjoy the replay in the thread I've linked to.

Still, independently discovering a difficult to find glitch, even if it is well known, is worth some commendation. Good job finding it and thank you for trying to share something new with us.

However, it is not a useless glitch. You can use its principle to save precious seconds of time. For example, you can release a homing missile much quicker from the rope by doing the same thing with the enter key.

It can also be quite handy with the Teleport in Team17 games. You activate it by pressing the spacebar in that case.
