Occasionally, I will enter a new mission area, and upon encountering a 'first opponent', the pointer will reduce to the small green dot instead of the arrow-pointer immediately after firing upon that enemy; after that, I can do nothing except move the mouse pointer (green dot) about, or scroll the view; nothing else will activate. I cannot switch characters, change weapons, open inventory or any other screen, and characters will not move.

The escape-key menu *will* open, and I can load a saved game; however, if I save the current game and attempt to reload it, it will immediately enter the same single-green-dot mode again; nothing will activate in-game.

No menu or dialogue-boxes are open.

Any ideas?

Update: Even the 'Q' key for returning to the currently-selected character will not function.

I'll look into this. I think it is related to engaging an enemy before they are in combat range. So, you see an enemy, they do not see you and you fire at them. Are you manually entering combat? Or, is the the game automatically placing your entire crew in combat mode?
Hello,

I had the same issue
in my case, the combat begins (automatically, not manually) and the ennemy sees me
my first character can attack, he makes his first shot, and then the combat freezes (like if it calculates the IA choice without resolving it), even if my character had some AP left
for the first shot, i had the red pointer to shoot, but then, after the first shoot the pointer became just a green plot while the combat system seems to calculate something (yellow circle in the top right to figure the calculation) but never finishes, i'm stuck
if i close the game, and relaunch it, the bug don't happen anymore
It seems it can happen only if i played for a long time
Thanks LurlurEmil - any details will help. I haven't been able to duplicate this one yet and still looking.

Any specific weapon type? Pistol, SMG, rifle etc?

Hi,

I had the issue with a rifle and a SMG
I had the issue on the first turn of the combat, but too once after 2 or 3 turns
So far I haven't been able to duplicate this bug. If anyone sees it again, and if you have a moment, would you mind sending your saves?

I would need:

The exact loadout you were using at the moment - weapons etc. saved in the location where the lockup happened.
The entire "Save" folder with all files.
The file in the "Log" folder - "S3DClient.log"

Zip the files up and send to support@stellartactics.com and I will play your saves and see if I can duplicate the issue.

If the file is too big, then perhaps a file share like Google drive.
I sent you an email
