A problem....

[hejsan]

Hello!!!

Its working, but if i miss the begin or continue button in the end or beginning and under the game, the game will reset!!

Like Russia turn push begin with the mouse and i miss with a few millimeter and it dont work then...

Its coming upp a circel with a line in and when i push the mouse button its says beep.....and i have to reset and load the game from beginning to play again.

What i am i going to do?

Is it a bug?

I have download all updates but the sam trouble its still there.

Are you playing a hot-seat game, a PBEM game, or ???  I couldn't duplicate the problem with a hot-seat game, or with a game where I'm playing against the PO, nor in my PBEM game with Curt. So....maybe some more detail would be helpful.  What EXACTLY is it that you do when this happens.  What exactly do you mean by "the game resets".  Do you mean it goes back to turn 1 or that it crashes to desktop or ???

Are you playing on a laptop. Do you have an ancient video card? Maybe some equipment description could be helpful in us pulling this problem apart.

It is when the next turn starts, when i go to the middle of the screen with the mouse and just missed the beginbutton and the picture will frozen and i have to press ctrl+ alt+ delete and load it from beginning.
 
No laptop, have a 2-3 years old computer with Vista and XP, 2 GB ram memory and 128 mb graphics card

It may not be the same issue but I have had similar problem. If your pointer will move try selecting one of the view options from the top pull down menu. In my case the game will seem to freeze in these situations but it is still running. The map graphics are frozen but the game continues. The best way back in that I have found is something out of the view menu. The game then resets the map and all controls work normally.

Now i test new scenario
 
red thunder 1988, ussr first turn it says on the middle of the screen
 
Begin Turn
U.S.S.R
AM 6/21/1988
Begin
 
It is when i take the mousepointer and i miss the beginbutton it will be a circel with a mark in and nothing works. I take the circel everywhere on the screen but all are frozen ( the top pull down menu and the all view options, nothings works only the mousecircel with the mark in moves.)

You can hit 'enter' on the keyboard instead of using the mouse for the 'Begin Turn' box. Doesn't solve whatever the problem is, but maybe it will bypass it or not create it.

I think I was able to recreate this. With the "begin" window on screen, I rolled my mouse wheel. A problem similar to what he's describing occurred. I could clear it by minimizing the TOAW window then re-maximizing it. So he must have one of those very sensitive mouse wheels, that, instead of click-stops, responds to the slightest wheel movement.

Note that in 3.4, you'll be able to disable the mouse wheel.

Curtis,
That makes sense. In 3.4, the mousewheel should also be disabled when a dialog is up.
