| Summary | 0002892: Game screen pans to outer space on ALT+TAB | ||||
| Description | 5.001 1. Start a game of AI War 2. ALT+TAB to desktop 3. Sit on desktop for 0000064:0000010 seconds 4. ALT+TAB back to game Expected Your view in game is where it was when you left it Actual The game appears to be scrolling while you are alt tabbed, leaving your view in deep space. A possible solution could be to invoke the "center view" event (what ever the 'M' key invokes) on returning to the app. | ||||

I have this problem too, it's a simple fix though. Simply press "T" upon reentering the game and then click on the center of the minimap that appears and viola. |
|
|
You can also press H. It will take your view to your command station on that planet, or a mobile builder if you don't have one on that planet, or an arbitrarily chosen unit (belonging to you) on that planet if you have neither of the previous two on that planet. (I gotta give the devs credit for this, they really thought that feature through) Not sure what will happen if you press H when you have nothing on the planet though. |

This was the result of another fix for an issue that people were having with panning the screen around the corners. Fixing one broke the other, and from what I understand this one can't be fixed without re-breaking the original issue. It's a minor aggravation, but it's easy enough to work around. |
|
|
Casually rightclicking something in the sidepanel on the right will works as well. |
|
|
I said Viola instead of Voila! LOL! |

Please search before reporting. As you can see (by the duplicates I just added) this is both an OLD issue and a KNOWN issue and an UNFIXABLE issue. |
