Hi,

I've bee trying to play the demo of Flashpoint Campaigns. Although everything starts ok, once I begin the turn it becomes very sluggish to inputs from the mouse.

The action seems to run smoothly. The diary at the bottom, if clicked on and scrolled, works nicely. However the actual map is often unresponsive when attempting to drag the map.

The same can be said if I attempt to open the Order of Battle in the BIC. It won't scroll up and down, and may scroll a few seconds later.

I can't just select units on the map...If I click on the unit, they're highlighted, but won't show up in the UDP.

Overall it seems like a cool game. But I can't access information due to it being sluggish to respond to my inputs. My system is:

AMD Athlon X2 250 (3ghz dual core)
4GB RAM
Radeon 7700-HD with 2GB
Windows 7
AVG Internet Security
Realtek sound card

I seem to have the same issue on my laptop as well:

Toshiba (Intel dual core 2.5ghz)...I think i3. (don't know much about it...
4GB RAM
Intel 4000-hd integrated graphics
Windows 8
WebRoot Anti-virus
on-board sound

Thanx for your help.

Ok. As long as the resolution phase is running I seem to be able to access the most of the tabs in the BCI...and can scroll up and down. However, the OB tab will not scroll.

The only way I can gain access to it is to PAUSE. But I do have access to it. I'm not sure, but I would think you should be able to access these tabs and info appropriately while the resolution is actually running. Or am I mistaken?

I also have the latest drivers for my Radeon...just in case anyone was wondering.

I'll check on the OB tab this evening during resolution and see if something odd is going on. During the orders phase I am seeing the scroll by mouse wheel zooming the map until I click on a unit in the OB, then the wheel scrolls the OB. I can elevate that issue as a bug and see if we can get it working better when the mouse is in the control.

I can actually get all of the tabs to show up including OB. However, I'm unable to scroll OB. All of the other tabs and scrolling seems to be responsive.

Regarding the UDP, perhaps I'm not understanding the functionality of it yet. But I click on a unit and it does not show in the UDP. I may click a few times, and still it doesn't show up. It may however switch to an active unit at times...I really can't tell how it is working. All I know is the unit that I'm clicking isn't showing up.

PAUSING seems to help.

During resolution the game is going to be jumping around grabbing the "active" unit and showing it in the UDP. You can sneak in and click a unit, but it will jump when the next action takes place. During orders you should be able to click and see every unit you click. If that is not working right let us know because that would be some new bug we have not seen.

During orders works just fine. It's too bad at this point I'm not very good. [&:][&:][&:]
