Why will my sentry not fire?

Hi! I have a gimkit, and I have 2 sentries that won’t fire at all, and 6 that only fire at players and not me even when I go in as a player.

Give some more context. What is the environment? What are some potential problems you think could cause this?

Well, it’s a Christmas gimkit. And they are supposed to be firing snowballs.

I have looked through all the game settings and the sentries settings, but nothing seems to be causing it.

And what do you think is causing this? Are there any walls in the way?

No walls in the way for any of them

Have you tried refreshing?

Could you provide the setttings?

Yes I have, nothing works!

Ok, of the sentry or the game?

Ok, just tell me VERY precise details (maybe provide a picture)

Is the sentry on the same team as the player or has a invisible barreir over it.
Try deleting and placing a new sentry.


Alright bet, as soon as i get home im getting on my laptop.

I’ll take a screenshot hold on a second

And show me the settings on the sentries

It is on team sentry and has no barriers

Is there a zone on top of it? In the zone settings, you can disable gadget fire. This might be why.

“barreir” hits hard :speaking_head: :fire:

Edit: Some other reasons for a non-firing sentry:

  • lag
  • An old device
  • Laggy game
  • Laggy server
  • Bad wi-fi
    Yeah basically, check your connection and stuff.

I have before encountered a glitch like that. Are inventory slots enabled?

like smar, i’ll just assume this is a glitch @ekruger5559

delete any sentry that is causing problems
& copy a sentry that does work to replace the broken ones

thats easier than actually figuring out whats wrong

true

gimkit servers completly crashed for me in the morning :|

That will work too, unless NONE of them work for you. For this, just get a new sentry.

It could be too that you placed a zone, and it has the "Can not fire in zone " option on.
