Map and other tabs not working after battle
« on: November 02, 2014, 01:28:32 PM »

often after a battle, the map tab no longer works. it makes the sound and flashes when clicked/hotkeyed, but no map comes up. I have tried landing, reloading, exiting to main menu and loading, loading another game... only way to fix it seems to be to completely restart the game. game is essentially unplayable in this state unless I just follow other ships to various points.

after testing I tried clicking other tabs and they also didn't work, until I clicked one which brought up a campaign helper tip.... then after that was gone the tabs worked... so I'm wondering if the bug is simply preventing the tips from showing and that jams up the tabs until cleared

Right, yes - thanks for the report and sorry about the trouble. See this thread for the specific workarounds:

This is fixed for the upcoming bugfix release.

excellent, thank you. if you put up a 'current bug list: LOOK HERE FIRST' thread and pin it, it might save you some time.

Yep. Hopefully now that 0.65.1a (with all the fixes) is out, this won't be a pressing issue, though :)
