| Summary | 0000909: OSX Can't send ships through wormholes: RightCTRL+LeftCTRL are active | ||||
| Description | So, I had a bunch of my ships selected right when I started a game to test some combat stuff and they won't go through the wormhole, nor could I set a rally point through the wormhole. I have a very strong suspicion this is because the mouse tooltip thing says I'm holding RightCTRL+LeftCTRL. This could be the cause of me playing the game on my Macbook which only has has one left control button. This laptop doesn't have a right control key. | ||||

I don't think that would matter, but I'm not sure. Are you sure there's not an enemy black hole machine on this planet, for one thing? |
|
|
Could also try to check the "Separate Left And Right Mod Keys" in the interface settings. Don't have a clue if it'll work or not, but it's something to try, at least... |

Ok, so I figured it out. I was playing with unexplored planets not visible and I hadn't scouted the planet yet. I was trying to send cutlasses through the wormhole. I didn't realize that I could only send scouts through un explored wormholes. Perhaps an obvious warning could be made when I tried to send non-scouts through the wormhole? Or maybe make it so any ship can go through even if it is unscouted? |

|
Okay, whew -- scared me there. :) Yes, we'll need to make it more obvious what is going on, with both this and black hole machines. |

Repurposing as a suggestion to have the interface indicate "cannot traverse wormhole because xyz". |
