LCU list

[Tom_]

Ok,
Without muddying the water got a similar issue.
This time on a desktop PC.
When i select anything the LCU box pops up for less than a second then disappears.
For example in the screen shot im trying to select the militia Cav - it pops up and goes.
Its very distracting.

Not using Launch fix
Dxdiag attached
Screenshot attached
Turn 1 of the tutorial
GPU drivers up-to-date

When opening an LCU detail window as you have there, the sidebar is supposed to hide while it's open and then unhide when the window is closed. It looks like the sidebar is instead becoming transparent. What happens when you close the LCU window?

So If I have any unit windows open (such as the ID305 in this picture) anywhere I click, or anything I select means the LCU box flashes and disappears within a second. If I exit the ID305 window and just have the map on the screen the LCU box is stable.

A question related to this topic.

Is it possible to turn off the LCU list? I can minimize it but I cant seem to get it off my screen. I tried to move from one unit to another via the unit display but the LCU list prevents that.

I'd rather just move from unit to unit rather than have a master list always active on my screen via a pop up.


Edit:After playing around with it I have to say the LCU list pop up is broken. It keeps freezing the game.

How is the game freezing?

Sorry, that was a bit inaccurate. It was a brief stutter, not a full-on freeze. And I was scrolling between multiple units, so that had an effect.

The basic issue is that the LCU pop up wasts to interact whenever I access any units. I guess I am too use to WITP. This new feature added to this game. It is more that I do not like it than it isn't functioning all that well.

You can minimize the sidebar - its a normal window. We didn't add a close button for it in the initial release as we wanted people to try it. It was a request from some testers.

Having the exact same issue here. I am like 25 turns into Scen 6. Suddenly now when I load up any scenario (not just my save game) the LCU box will flicker when I click a hex with LCUs. If I get my mouse over the part of the box (which is invisible on my screen but there) that says redistribute supplies I can then see the box. I was able to get to a corner and try moving it around and all it did was make my screen go black everywhere that I took the lcu box. Once I clicked back on the map it all disappeared.

In this screenshot I had moved it all around my screen

I can send save file or anything if needed.

EDIT: I just removed launch fix and I am back to it being normal. Weird because I was NOT using the launch fix when it started bugging out. Then proceeded to add it, and it was still not working. But taking it back off has fixed it for now.

Thanks ! Bill, our sidebar guy, needs to look at this !!

Can you

(A) send a save from the start of the turn (the highest numbered save 50 or above should be the auto save from the start of your turn ?

(B) Tell us what buttons you pushed before you saw the start of this behavior ?

(We've had ~100 people testing for 7 months and haven't seen this symptom yet - but we appreciate the report and want to fix it !)

Bill may have other questions, he should wake up around 3pm Eastern USA.

Also, can you run a dxdiag and upload, that might provide useful hardware info. Thanks !

Will do this now...

(A) - Attached as a Zip
(B) - no buttons pressed - its in this state from the moment i load the tutorial. Only when i move the mouse to the left does the 'ghost' of the LCU list appear.
(C) dxdiag attached
(D) - Drivers are up-to-date as of today

Happy to wait - here for the long haul with the game and franchise & anything I can do to help

With regards to this bug the latest patch v1.65.51 has not resolved it.
Anything else I can do to help?
