    Some items don't work... Edit - they work , answers in thread

    Well, I am running into a problem - some of the items I have found in crates and have bought from Humba don't work. Specifically, the sails, the clockwork kaz, and the grenade turret. I'm only up to spring upgrade for the trolley and have about 70 something jiggies. I do have the torpediles and jets (large and small), and those work. Is this a matter of a bug, or do I have to be at a certain stage before they will work?

    And you made sure that not only do you have ammo when using the Clockwork or egg turret, are you also sure that you are in the turret? and the sails only work on a vehicle that is not using wheels

    No sails work on wheeled vehicles too like in one of the first Terranium challenges with Humba Wumba

     

    But out of couriosity: How do you have 70 jiggies and only the spring upgrade? Have you just been avoiding the grunty battles or something?

    Re: Some items don't work...

    In aswer to how did I get that number of jiggies, I've just been exploring around and playing what came up. I have bought the jolly roger jiggies and found a couple of tamper switches. I haven't purposefully been avoiding any battles - just going for all the TT trophies too. I've done nutty acres, logbox, on the final act for banjo, and a number of the jiggoseum ones. For what it's worth, I have 75 jiggies and the spiral mountain just opened up. I can't even open up the terrarium yet as no scuba seat.

    With respect to the clockwork, turret, and the sail. I can put them on vehicles, but it won;t register them as being there (they don't show up in the configure button menu). For the clockwork and the turret, it sholdn't matter that I'm only using the large and medium ammo boxes right?

    Yeah. The clockwork Kazooie eggs auto fire themselves, no buttons at all, but for using the egg turret, you MUST get out of your vehicle and then press the Y button when it's highlighting the Turret, then whlie you are in first person aiming the turret, you press the A button to fire.

    Thanks for the info - I thought it would be something to could switch to while driving. So how do the clockworks know when to fire?  Still leaves me with the sail problem tho.

    All of your questions have already been answered. More than once, in fact...

    Clockwork Kaz fires itself when it's near an enemy
    Get out of your vehicle to use the turrets
    The sail won't work if you have wheels

    There's nothing wrong with the game, it's just that there are special ways in which those specific parts work.

    The sails work if you have wheels. The air path just can't be blocked and they're not "used". You use them as a propulsion source simply by holding RT.

    Actually, they weren't at the time you posted... I figured out the sail thing before checking back with the thread - works like regular motor (LT and RT triggers to move). I thought it was something you had to activate like the weapons.

    As far as the turret - mine was high up on the vehicle I was testing things on and I never got the "Y" enter to show up until I climbed up, then it was obvious.

    My second question regarding the Clockworks was more along the lines of "How close do you have to be? Do they target the biggest enemy or the closest?" - I guess I wasn't clear about my line of questioning, sorry about that.

    Thanks to all in the thread for the help.
