Unable to select units in battle mode
« on: May 16, 2018, 08:11:45 PM »
Tech Support,

I am not sure what happened, but I am unable to select any of the units.  the units will acknowledged that i have selected them, however, nothing shows up in the boxes below what i have selected.  I have tried to load the mission again from the last save, but nothing. Any thoughts?

Thank you in advance

It seems that you have run into then unit selection freeze bug, which happens when the game engine can't handle the ammount of objects anymore. There should be a defreezer included in your ICW folder. Use that on your save game and it should fix it

I'm assuming you don't have the Steam version of the game (that should be patched to not have the freezes anymore), so you'll have to use the savegame defreezer that kucsidave mentioned.
