TSATC: HELP - Losing View Options

Werewolf · #1 February 4th, 2006, 02:44 PM

At times during play of TSATC I lose the <O> option. It becomes greyed out and I can no longer change the view. Very annoying because I like to turn things on only as I need them and then off when I don't.

What gives? Why is the O option going away?

The "O" hot key and associated "Options" item from the "View" menu are only active when time is stopped. This is necessary because the window covers the display and is "modal" (e.g. no other processor activity happens in the game while the window is open).

If you are seeing this behavior at any other time, it is a bug, let us know the specifics on when you see the problem.

Nope - that's it. <O> disappears when time is running and comes back when it is stopped.
