When a jump just isn't a jump

[Chitlins37]

I agree the 4x4 is highly unlikely (I won't say impossible bc I have seen it...which may also be a glitch) but jump isn't quite right even on 3x3 atm. Did me dirty in war yesterday...1-star result was basically a wasted attack on war map

A common misconception is that a jump "deletes" the walls. Your troops have to be able to fit completely inside the jump for it to draw them in. If there isn't enough space for their entire body on that side of the wall they will not use the jump. This also has a beneficial aspect though. If they are already in a jump spell they can jump over a wall just outside the jump spell.

It isn't any sort of "anomaly". Place the jump that way on any wall anywhere and you will get the same result. If you had a few pixels more to the outside it would have worked.

Exactly that. Something I've not that long ago got completely sorted and been trying to re-educate clanmates with.

First layer on a jump, play extra safe, got to make sure they can definitely stand in it. But it does mean you get a far bigger reach than you would think on 2nd layers.

One of our clean up attacks just a few hours ago it seemed like a king took a superman leap, on a jump that didnt even really touch 2nd wall, while raged.

The only wonky AI bit though, is how it decides what is closer when bashing a wall or jumping then walking a few steps are the options.

My king decided a tesla behind a lava wall was preferable to jump, as the building next to the jump wall was destroyed a split second before.

i see nothing wrong here? the jump spell only works with 3 space in between walls (i.e. one building 3x3) however in your pic there is a 4x4 space, a jump doesnt cover this

nothing wrong with the spell or anything just your lack of knowledge

I played around with jumps on the goblin maps just for this reason just to get coverage down.

Actually had some pretty good responses here, which have actually helped me haha. Thanks guys, time to rethink and relearn my jumps.
