UI Console Flashing / Glitch
Whenever I try to open the UI console, it just flashes, and appears for a split second when I hover my mouse over certain parts of the screen. It also disables the menu, and I usually have to alt-f4 out once I try to open it. Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a known fix?

What do you mean with 'UI Console' ?
Is that the console with a lot of tiny text and a 'dark' background or another thing?

It sounds like your controls are somehow messed up.
I'd suggest to delete the 'Settings' folder located in Documents/BeamNG.Drive (It will reset all your settings).

If the problem persist, a video of the issue would be a better way to describe it :)

This is the menu I'm having trouble with: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=482191987

When I try to activate that console, it flashes on the screen, I can see buttons and click on them, but the menu only flashes, it will not stay on screen. This has happened even after a fresh install. The menu does work, but it has a strobe effect, flashing on and off very quickly.

I tried to take a video, but it wouldn't render, I tried Nvidia Shadow Play which only showed part of the glitch, and CamStudio which had trouble recording fast enough to catch it.

EDIT: I'm having trouble with the UI Console listed in the picture, not the game menu. It works fine. The console listed on the top left of the pictured menu "UI Console" is the one that won't work.

Here is the best video I could get, it doesn't show the menu flashing, but it does show the background flashing blue, maybe it could help.

Oh I see.
That console is not a game feature. It's a development tool we use to work on the UI.
I'm not sure why you want to mess with it, but in any case that would work only if you run the game in windowed mode.
And apart from that, as I already said, it's nothing but just a development tool. You probably don't need it :)

Thanks Nadeox1, I honestly didn't know what it was. I read in a readme that I needed to use it to turn on a mod, other then that though, I had no need for it. The windowed solution worked, and helped me figure out how to use the mod. I appreciate your explanation, and your solution.

P.S
This game is great, and certainly unique. I've always enjoyed crashing stuff in games, and this will likely be my favorite EA title once I get used to it. Please keep up the good work, this game is already awesome, so I can't wait to see what happens as the game progresses!
