Game freezes after clicking "Disband TF"

Post by Nanbu753 »

So I tried to disband my TF and after clicking it text appears "disband? yes/no" and then game just freezes, after trying to clicking yes, window "yes/no" disappears but still cant press any button
Fixes and beta are installed
In properties I wrote this "-px1920 -py1080 -skipVideo -dd_sw -deepColor -multiaudio -fd -SingleCpuOrders -cpu4 -w-altFont -fixedArt -noFire" and actually changing it or try to run without any didnt help
Disabling audio and video didnt help
Freezes after trying to disband any TF
Everything else worked perfect as I played

Any help will be appreciated

To prevent accidental disbanding (which can mess up TF makeup and leadership) you must press the Y or N key on the keyboard to confirm your choice. There are several other places in the game that use that keyboard confirmation, like disbanding units or withdrawing ships etc.

Thanks for reply
The problem was not about pressing buttons on keyboard but your message gave me an idea
The problem was with Japanese language keyboard
I don't know why but it made game freeze if I had it instead of English one, but now all works fine
Thank you kindly

I was also troubled by the same issue (Japanese keyboard). However, after upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11, the 'Y' key started working again. I hope this example is helpful to you.

Don't wish to highjack the post but had a similar issue of my own making.
In my haste I accidentally pressed the * T * key instead of * Y * the game then locked up.
Did this two or three times before realising my mistake, have not made the same error since.
But I was wondering how to exit the selection process Y/N dialogue box without exiting the game.

You can't. More to the point why it locks when the t key is pressed mine doesn't so maybe something to do with your computer set up.

There's been more post on this disband process then just about anything since it's inception. Should tell the designer it's not popular and for all those who make a mistake, tough, just get on with it.
