    As title says:

    Sometimes I manage to launch nukes, sometimes I can't.
    Is there a cooldown I have to wait before relaunching?

    By the way I have tried both the attack icon on the right and the A button. Nothing works.

    Any ideas?

    Ah, found a similar thread here and another in Steam.

    It seems the bug does exist and its inconsistency has hidden it from several players.

    So, are there any official plans to fix it? It can be quite gamebreaking.

    You can't launch a nuke until it's fully built. That is, the purple bar beneath that indicates it's still building should be gone. Or alternatively, if you mouse over the nuke launcher, it should not say "FABRICATING" anymore. If you zoom in on the launcher, there should be a rocket on the launch pad.

    Also, you can't nuke gas giants, but anything else is fair game.

    Taking that into account, are there still scenarios where the nuke won't fire?
