Xbows not firing

Has anyone noticed this at all?

Pic 1: The level 1 xbow is clearly aimed upwards (air and ground only). There is ammo in the xbow.

Pic 2: My balloon is clearly within range of the xbow. Yet it just sits there idle.

Pic 3: Still sitting there chilling out whilst my minions spew black love over his base.

Pic 4: Thinking that I'm imagining things, i check his base later and confirm his xbow is set to ground and air! So why didn't it fire at my air troops?

Yes this is a glitch, supercell really otta fix that.

Anyone know if there's a manual diy fix if this happens to you?

set them to ground since air/ground mode is useless anyway

I only know how to do it, don't know how to undo it:D

Disclaimer I'm only TH8 so I only report what I'v read on the forums no first hand experience with X-Bow since I don't have it yet and I drop trophy to farm lower so not much X-bow where I am right now

It seem that as an attacker you cannot do anything about it. But as a defender you can use the glitch to fools others

Here's how the glitch works:

Xbows APPEAR as you have them set on your ACTIVE LAYOUT.

Xbows FUNCTION as you have them set on your LAYOUT #1.

The intelligent player will also understand from this how to abuse their xbow visual appearance to their advantage. Many intelligent players are already doing this.

as I said no first hand experience so not sure if it's accurate but make sense
