FAILED(on_left_button_down) Bug

[guggy]

I am playing 2 PBEM games, v1.03.02b, one as axis and one as allies.

Got this random bug with the error message FAILED(on_left_button_down) and then kicked out of the game.

Did I miss something ?

Hi Guggy,

Sorry to hear the trouble and I did track down a few instances (this is one of those errors that is difficult to repeat) where this might occur and the fix will be a part of the next update. Hopefully it completely resolves this going forward.

Thanks Hubert,

I also contacted support to open a ticket. Hope you will fix this nasty bug

I just got this one also. Not trying to pile on or anything, just reporting, and hopefully the next update squashes it. This is the first one of these that I have had since four months ago, and with daily playing, so that ain't bad. Unfortunately, it was at the end of one of those long turns, so now I have to play it over.

Welcome in my world

As of now, you are going to experience this bug on a regular but random basis.

I strongly advise that you save your turns after moving 10/20 units to limit the damage of future crashes...

Know the feeling...It happens to me alot when i run into a hidden enemy unit so you are not alone....but im sure it will be a short term issue as game improves. I think you just gotta accept it with new releases as the alternative is wait for release for alot longer until it gets near perfect. As ive now im still really enjoying playing despite that

In my case this happened when a ship "sails" over a hidden sub.
My game is PBEM game and the version is the last beta.
Hope this helps.

Futhermore,
Trying to reply the bug... i have seen that when a ship sails over a hidden sub it takes 1 point of damaged. And i "can see" where the sub is because i see the hex at which the ship losses his point (but the sub is "not painted").
So, with a new unit i can move "over or next" to that hex... Then, the sub "appears" and i can attack it as usual.
Is this normal or is wrong?

Update: if you move a ship and then find a hidden sub, and then you attack it... and it "hides" you can "see" where it goes because the "hex" where the sub is, it has not the same colour as the other around.

Played a few turns under 1.03.04 ... bug is still there, striking randomly.

Still need to save game every 10 moves, and got kicked 3/4 times each turn.

[guggy]

Bug getting worse each day... now getting kicked 10+ times when playing large number of units (allies in 1943).

Any news from the dev team ?

Opened a support ticket but looks like it is stalled.
Quite unusual as they tend to reply fast and efficiently in the recent past.

It's happened to me and it was recreatable.
Every time I embarked an Axis unit in England and then "cruise" moved
it through Kiel canal to a Baltic port and then disembarked the unit, I get the message.
In another game it happened when I embarked French Syria corps and "cruise" them
across Med and then embark at Marseilles. Every time it crashes game
and makes me sad. Please fix. Otherwise, it's a great sim., impressive AI.

Hi Guggy,

I'm having a very hard time recreating this error. Can you send me your SC3.ini file (found in your SC3 user folder), just the preference details in the file other than your Login and Password information at the bottom of the file. This will help me to track down the issue.

Hi Fubarno,

Can you tell me which version of the game you are running as I'm also having a hard time repeating this error as well. If you have a saved game handy where this error is repeatable this would be helpful too.

Please send to support@furysoftware.com

I believe this 'on_left_button_down' issue has been resolved on my end and here is an updated EXE (for the current Beta install only) that should do the trick. You'll just need to download it from within the following link, and then copy and paste the EXE overtop of the existing Beta EXE which will bring it up to v1.03.04.03 Beta. All current Beta games will be compatible with this EXE:

I'm currently playing a multi-player game, after updating to 1.04. I'm getting the error message when attempting to click on an air unit. So the bug is still impacting games,

[guggy]

Confirm bug is still there under 1_03_04_01 and 1_03_04_02

Did sent the requested files.

Good luck

For v1.04 players, there is a new hotfix available that should finally correct this issue. More can be found here:

I've just updated the Beta EXE for the game to v1.03.04.03 as this should also now finally correct this bug:
