Bug Description

A couple of problems I'm having with Prism Towers:

1. while building a prism tower, it will occasionally try to support towers nowhere near it, It MAY be if the "far" tower is attacking other units.

2. Occasionally, and seemingly at random, Prism towers will all fire towards the top of the map, they don't support each other during this attack, and even with a spysat, I've never been able to see what they're firing at.

##### STEPS TO REPRODUCE #####
Build Prisms, keep an eye on prisms.

Point one is: "while the prism is showing the builup animation you can see at the same time the active animation feeding another tower from a far, faaar prism tower" ??
I noticed it testing the second allied mission while I was turtling with prisms the main base & a little outpost...

Pretty much what FS-21 said, I dunno what feedback can be given until someone asks for more info, or reports the bug fixed, I can post prism code if it helps?

I'm using prism forwarding logic on tesla coils if that helps too.

I'm not seeing the above mentioned bugs in Fatman 12.77.825 so I'm guessing it's fixed.

But active anims on Prism Towers won't animate unless it fires or supports another tower.

Thanks for testing! I haven't looked at the animation problem, because that would be another issue.

No reports stating the opposite for one and a half months, so I guess it's indeed working for everyone.
