[BUG] Screen area unusable during game

Postby Drimocus » 08 May 2015, 17:39

During a game yesterday I and other players had a bug where we couldn't use the center portion of our screen.

Attached:
- replay of the game (from my local folder)
- replay.log (after watching the full replay from start to finish)
it was late, so I didn't think of saving any other logs

events leading up to the bug:
- 20:00 mins ingame: CrotchCritter had to leave, gave all units but left comm ingame (no share)
- 21:30 mins ingame time ThalesMiletus disconnects
- Everyone ejects ThalesMiletus, except CrotchCritter, who is afk ingame
- presumably autoeject kicks Thales
As soon as Thales drops and his units explode the center part of the screen becomes unusable.
Can't click, zoom or select anything in the center portion. (hidden desync window or something?)
This affected everyone still in the game, not just me.


Mods I use:
- Notify V3.6
- EcoManager V3

I dont know what mods others used.

The game desynced, you're using a version of ecomanager that breaks the current desync dialog, causing your symptom.

Someone should be releasing a new version of EcoManager that resolves this imminently, until then you will either have to play without it or tolerate that desynced games have this symptom.
