Minor bug: Console/chat breaks when autosave is triggered

Post by Tr1cKy »

I searched for duplicates of this report but didn't find any. I'd expect many users to have come across it already though?

I've noticed in multiplayer that when I'm busy typing a message to my friends, if an autosave is triggered, that I can no longer type. I have to press tilde twice and start that chat message again from scratch. I'm not certain of what version this started with (I'm a new player) - but it occurs in the current experimental build.

It isn't gamebreaking ... perhaps even trivial, but it is certainly annoying if you've already typed out a whole lot. xD

Yea this has happened to me quite a lot, same things happens if you die while you are typing.

Not a very big bug but a slight inconvenience.

Doesn't have to be in multiplayer, can be in single player when using the console to give commands too

and you can also resolve the issue by clicking in the text box too.

I also fixed the related issue with your deconstruction planner and blueprint being cancelled when the autosave dialog shows up whilst you're still dragging.

I think that entering train-stop-names, setting up requests or similar was already fixed?
