There is no solution to that particular problem. It is due to the huge number of calculations being performed by the CPU. This is less of a problem for smaller scenarios, but once you have a lot of units (missiles, planes) in the air, the game just crawls.

You can try and reduce the Accuracy/Speed slider to Low/Fast. My personal method is just to place the game on pause before trying to issue any orders.

Thanks for help hermanhum,

i was not very precise in describing the error, the problem is just in the starting screens, where to select the scenario.

20 minutes of "wild clicking" later: I found the soloution: disable mouse acceleration in logitech software.

Again, thanks for help.

FYI, this can be a problem with PC emulation in Mac. If using VPC, make certain that "PC cursor tracks Mac's mouse" is unchecked.

Gottel,

Thanks for that bit of information. We will put it on our FAQ for future reference.
