Rocket constantly on fire

It catches fire a bunch, and doesn't have the best return anyway, but I like it and it isn't hurting me in anyway to have it there and launch it.........

No, there's no apparent "glitch".

If you flipped a quarter and four times in a row it landed on heads would you then throw the "broken" quarter into the trash because it apparently was glitched and never lands on tails? Of course not.

1 launch since they fixed the rocket all for an ant sign, I think I'm going to store it :!: :evil:

I read someone else said that if your rocket catches fire, store it, take it out and try again. Repeat if it catches fire again, until it launches.

I have not actually tried this, as after reading this tip, I went to try it and "of course" my rocket launched....

Figures right?

I got my first successful launch today. What is the prize that I will get when it comes back?

EA really missed an opportunity on the "launching of the rocket". They should have made it so Barney's space skin shortened the wait time, like Marge's witches skin does for the farm. It would have been a great incentive to purchase it.

My first prize was a hail ants sign :roll:

This glitch was fixed in a recent patch. You can no longer do that. (Well, you can store it and take it out again and "relaunch" it, but it will be the same result as before.)

Likely debris. LPN posted a table showing the odds for each of the prizes.
