Odd issue with icon-based spawner

Postby flib » Thu Sep 18, 2008 11:35 pm

I just started playing Darwinia on my Vista machine, and i updated it with the latest patch.
When I try to spawn an engineer, I bring my cursor over the Engineeer icon, but the selector doesn't move from it, so when I click, it selects the Squad instead.
I've found that I can just move my cursor over something else, like the icon for a Squad/Engineer that is already out and after that the selector will move to the Engineer, but it's very irritating to have to do that every time.

Any ideas? >_>
I know this seems like a minor issue, but tbh, it severely hinders the fun.

It's a glitch in the game.
To avoid it, use space bar to unselect whatever you were using before hitting tab.

Fair enough, any possibility that this glitch is going to be fixed in a patch soon?

Also, it doesn't help to deselect things first.
