I'm just checking to see if this is a feature by design or a bug. When I set a Delay Wave value it delays the wave properly at the start of the level, but when the wave is complete and it proceeds to go into Repeat Wave, the Delay Wave value is applied to each repeating wave also. I am assuming this is by design, but for me it's not what I expected so it feels like a bug. But perhaps there is a better way to do what I'm trying to do.
Since there's no concept of overlapping waves, I want to kick off different waves later in the level using the delay wave value, but I also want some of these waves to repeat. But I don't want the delay wave value to apply to the repeated wave. After all, it already has a Repeat Pause time to take care of how long to pause before starting the repeated wave. Considering that feature, it seems like the inclusion of the delay wave on top of the repeat pause time is a potential bug.
Just to be more clear. I have a specific wave with a Delay Value of 20 seconds. So 20 seconds into the level it starts spawning this wave of enemies. This wave also has repeating on for a total of 3 repeats and I have Repeat Pause time set to 2 seconds. I expect that after the first spawns are gone that it will wait 2 seconds and spawn the repeated wave. Instead, it waits 22 seconds.
