Political Machine 2016

from Stardock Forums

Is this the right forum for game questions and bugs? I'm trying to find out why my Fixers don't actually Fix. Instead they just hang out with the target. How do you get these things to work? Is it a bug? Is this game dead with no further support?

You have to click on your Fixer, and then right-click to target the opponent. However, a Fixer cannot remove another Fixer.

I understand how it's supposed to work. But it doesn't seem to work. I select the Fixer, click on the target (who isn't a Fixer) and my Fixer just moves to the same location and places my Fixer behind my target. It doesn't acknowledge my click on the target.

The "Political Operative" is a special character that you get for building a Level 3 HQ.  To the game, he is of the same "type" as those of candidates and running mates.

The operatives that you hire (ie. spin doctor, smear merchant, etc), or the ones you can get from a "?" on the map (ie. cheerleader, media darling, etc) are all of type "activist".  These are the type of objects that the Fixer can take out.

Were you trying to take out the first type?

I'm not sure now. I'll load up the game and see. Thanks for that important piece of information.
