[0.17.40] Double clicking multiplayer doesn't "join game"

We are aware of them, but they have low priority. We have more important things to do. They go here in order not to take space in the main bug thread list.

[0.17.40] Double clicking multiplayer doesn't "join game"

Post by svaller »

When I go through the menu to the list of multiplayer games I can't double click on a game name "join the game"

To recreate:
  1. Navigate Menu: Play -> Multiplayer -> Browse public games
  2. Click on a game name to select the row of the game I am interested in reading the details about
  3. Double click on the highlighted row for the game to join it
  4. Nothing happens
If I hit enter with a game highlighted it joins the game. If I click the green "Join game" button with a game highlighted it joins the game.

I would like to be able to double click on a game and join the game.

Thanks for the report. That GUI hasn't gone through our re-write process to address things like this.

As it is, double-click-to-join doesn't work because the first click disables joining the game until it downloads the server info (which takes a second). So, every double-click is always rejected since the 2nd click is blocked due to the info still being downloaded.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
