I may just be being stupid but got Hail Mary pass on one of my snotlings and can't seem to work out how to use it? If I just use "pass" it can be intercepted and uses range ruler?

Any ideas?

You should try it out in Test Mode (https://fumbbl.com/help:Test+mode) before a "real" game, so you are familiar with it.

Same w/ Passing the ball to an empty field, and selecting special skills (like Multi-Block, Stab, Leap, etc etc).


(Test Mode is also good for Saving Setups, to save time (and avoiding mental errours) during a game. Get it right, Save it with a meaningful name (D: v. Speed, D: v. Foul, O: OTS, whatever), then just Load it up.)

Or he could just ask since it's pretty simple once you have been told how. Wink

Being told is not the same as knowing (and remembering!) how, and he can't really ask for help again once he's in a game.

Do it a couple times when there is no opponent to worry about, better safe than sorry, and the Test mode is not a bad tool to be familiar with.

That's true.

Still going to test mode seems like it could also be a hard thing to figure out for a beginner Smile
