Can't select and give orders to Trucks and Cyborg Engineers

[JDW]

Version: git/qt
Operating System: GNU/Linux 32-bit


On loading the game for the first time and starting a skirmish on Sk-Rush map, I'm not able to select trucks or cyborg engineers and give them orders to build. Although, I'm able to right-click on them and order them to be recycled. I can only give them orders by clicking on the Build icon.

Even clicking on the factories and research facility does not show the menu windows on the bottom and the left side of the screen. Instead there's only a message displayed at the top of the screen when clicking on the structures like "Factory Damage 0%", "Cyborg Factory Damage 0%", or "Research Facility Damage 0%". Pressing F1, F2, or F3 does not display the menus. However, clicking on the Manufacture, Research, or Build icons work fine and is the only way to give build orders to trucks or select research topics, or even to manufacture units.

The Esc key does not pause the game or even show the menu (Resume game, Load game, Quit, etc.). Sometimes, after a while, everything starts to works properly. But pressing the F10 key to take a snapshot definitely brings everything back to normal.

Again, this seems to happen almost every time the game is loaded for the first time.


P.S. Can't seem to create a ticket to report this bug.

Pay attention to what you're doing. It actually submitted to the bug tracker 5 times.

I never got an acknowledgement from tracker even once. I was paying attention. And once it even told me the network was down.
