Actually, I just realized that this issue is probably my computer's fault. Sometimes when I press the mouse and have another button held in a game, the mouse stays locked on "click mode" for a while.

Yes, 1 button mouse- sorry I should've mentioned that in the beginning.

Airstrike Bombers go through Gateway

When airstrike flares are placed just behind (opposite the side the bombers are known to come by) a gateway, the bombers will fly straight through the gateway- and also drop their ordinance through the gateway if the flares were placed close enough. (this includes the gateway's structure, not just t...

A similar thing happens with Squads under the zoom. If you have a squad selected, zoom in (using "z"), and click-hold (only until they start shooting, then you can let go) somewhere for them to fire without moving your cursor afterwards, the Squad will continue to fire at that location until the cur...

I just tested this on my iBook 900 mhz G3, 640 MB RAM, 32 MB graphics card... I tested beta 1 and beta 3, and charged my computer to 100% before each trial. No other programs were running. beta 1: 92% power remaining after 7:23 beta 3: 92% power remaining after 7:23 7 minutes and twenty-three second...

Officer Issue with Zoom

I didn't see this in the other forums, so I'm guessing it is Mac only. When you create an Officer, zoom in (using "z"), and then click on it without moving the mouse afterwards, the order above the Officer's head switches continuously between "Follow" and "None". As soon as you move the cursor away ...

Another update on this from beta 3. I've still had trouble with the help function working reliably. Often if I don't use it after making a few things and then try it, it won't work. This doesn't seem to be related to the camera's position (as in close or not close to a building). Also, I just got an...

I just experienced something similar to this. I tried to get my squad to enter an unconnected radar dish, then connected the dish to another one, and then tried to send them through again. One of the squad members went through, but the other three remained stuck to the original radar dish, bouncing ...

I ran into the same problem today under similar circumstances. I didn't press "h" in the beginning, and made the max number of tasks. I tried to make another program and got the message saying you can only have 3. I tried to use help sometime after this with no success. I tried going next to a build...

One time when I started it up, I also got a similar camera problem. I left the mouse alone and the camera gradually settled down. By shaking the mouse back and forth quickly, and then stopping it, I found that I can get a similar effect- the camera shakes around for a while and then gradually settle...

Help Not Working

I made an Officer, two Squads, and an Engineer. I destroyed a number of my Darwinians with a grenade, and after the Engineer cleaned up the corpses, I tried making another squad. The help box came up telling me that I had the maximum amount of programs. Around this time, the help function stopped wo...

When I opened the game, the camera vibrated up and down a little, but settled down after a few seconds. I made an Officer, had it set to Follow, and zoomed the camera in pretty close. The camera went choppy for a second, and then I got the error: ========================= DARWINIA BLACK BOX REPORT =...
