RESOLVED - Unable to attack planet (latest steam build)

Post by eidolad »

The enemy has two planets...after many turns of combat I invade and begin assimilation of one planet. Many turns in which I ignored the second planet which would fling missiles at my ships that were way out of range.

Then I gather more ships and send them towards the second planet, which is launching missiles. This planet has about 1.5B population.

I can see and shoot down the missiles from the planet.

However, I cannot attack the planet. When I press A for attack, I see my "green" status ship weapons (beams and bombs), however when I mouse over the planet and click on it...nothing happens and the planet is blank...nothing to shoot.

If I press A again (turn off attack mode cursor) then I see the planet population and infrastructure.

I will email to support a screenshot and send a "crash reporter zip file" after I complete the combat/round.

edit: also I allow a missile salvo to hit one of my ships and found that the planet's missiles indeed damage my ships

edit: I save/exit/restart the game and the same condition recurs. However, I also find that if I press the "auto" combat option, my ships *can* and do attack/damage the planet. But if I disengage auto-combat...I then resume the inability to attack the planet manually.
