Hi guys. I have a problem about my penguin ability =(
Well, thing is, if I stop casting the ability everything goes fine ... however, if i kill my stupid penguin before the time, everything goes as planned... except for the part that the explosion effect is created in the wrong place !! I don't know why this happens ... please help !
know why this happens ?
