__TOC__
== Description ==
The '''Bat''' was an [[Enemies|enemy]] that appeared exclusively in [[Nightmare Carnival]] as part of the [[Halloween 2019 Event]]. It was spawned after a [[Vampire (Nightmare Carnival)|Vampire]] was killed. It was also spawned by [[Jack O' Bot]]. It was quite fast (faster than the [[Vampire (Nightmare Carnival)|Vampire]] and [[Ghost (Nightmare Carnival)|Ghost]]) while also having a considerable amount of health.

As the '''Bat''' was flying, it could not be hit by collisions from [[units]], like [[Tank (Unit)|Tanks]] from the [[Military Base]]. It was also hidden, so it could not be targeted by towers without hidden detection.

== Appearance ==
The '''Bat''' took the appearance of a regular cave-dwelling bat. It was completely black and relatively small compared to the [[Vampire (Nightmare Carnival)|Vampire]], while also flying above the ground.

== Strategy ==
*The [[Military Base]]'s [[units]] (like the [[Humvee 3]]) and [[SWAT Van]] (from the [[Shotgunner|Enforcer]]) are useless against '''Bats''' as they cannot target or collide with the '''Bat'''.
**The [[Crook Boss]]'s [[units]] are also useless against '''Bats''', as they cannot detect them.
*Despite being a flying [[Enemies|enemy]], the '''Bat''' could be detected by ground towers.
**This makes the [[Minigunner]] and [[Turret]] very useful against it.
*Due to the '''Bat's''' high speed, a Level 3+ [[Pyromancer]] is recommended to slow them down.
**A Level 0-2 [[Pyromancer]] cannot detect the '''Bat''', as the [[Pyromancer]] only receives hidden detection on Level 3.
*If a [[Vampire (Nightmare Carnival)|Vampire]] with low health is reaching the end of the map, try not to kill it as it will turn into a '''Bat''', doing considerably more damage to the base.
*The [[Freezer]]'s ''Ice Age'' ability can freeze '''Bats''', even though the ability appears on the ground.

== Trivia ==
*This was the first [[Enemies|enemy]] to be immune to collisions, tied with the [[Witch (Nightmare Carnival)|Witch]], though the '''Bat''' was immune from collision from all [[units]], while the [[Witch (Nightmare Carnival)|Witch]] was only immune from collision by the [[Tank (Unit)|Tank]] and [[Railgun Tank]].
**This was the second enemy to fly, after the [[UFO (Area 51)|UFO]] and tied with the [[Witch (Nightmare Carnival)|Witch]].
*The '''Bat''' was based on R2D's [[w:c:r2d:Cavebat|Cavebat]].
*The '''Bat''' appeared on the [[Hunter]]'s original {{Color|ADD8E6|Halloween}} skin.

== Update History ==

**'''Bat''' added.
*'''9 November 2019''' - [[Release v1.2|Release v1.2.0]]
