Game is stuck in this locked state, have to force quit :frowning:

How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?
first time ive seen in myself.

Steps to make it happen again
:man_shrugging:

This fight occurred 2-5min before making this post during the World Event. if that helps with log gathering.

Infernus isnā€™t ready to cast so the graphic you included makes sense. It appears the hero isnā€™t ready either but assume he was full and when you tried to cast nothing happened and the game considered his mana to be spent? Very odd.

@Thevc i have described the order of events in my OPā€¦

@Redi1 was saying he saw this somewhere but we were having a hard time finding it so i made a post anyway.

Then i see Kafka tagged this as Known issue which led us to it :slight_smile:

Yup, that is exactly what i happened :joy:

Here was my report on the same issue: [Reported] Unable to select Spell target - #9 by noob.

I donā€™t remember experiencing it again since then. :crossed_fingers: Hereā€™s hoping that continues.

It happened to me once as well. Also posted about this here:

The only solution is that you try to click a little slower.
However, I am not sure if itā€™s 100% effective. Probably not.

It happened to me again during the Faction Assault. I was playing fast, and looking at the recording, it does appear I clicked ā€œCastā€ very quickly after it became available to click.

Slowed down:

I really hope that this will get fixed some day!

@Kafka, what else can we do to minimize the chances of such things happening?

Lowering the game speed from x4 to x3?

Nice capture @Voq thank you! Iā€™ll add it to the bug report.

@Koromac yeah I suspect slowing the game down a little would help but it shouldnā€™t happen so frequently to worry about it, depending on what your animation speed tolerance isā€¦ I feel like Iā€™m crawling toward death slower than 4x personally :wink:

Intresting. This has happened to me 4 times total but all only in world events. In surprised to see it happen in a faction assult since I play those at my personal max speed :wink:
