Unable to select units, move, or attack

[Smor ツ]

Recently installed the game and I'm unable to select units, move units once selected (by using the select next unit button) or have a unit attack a target, any help would be appreciated.

And to quote the devs answer about this issue:

If you try that, it'd be really useful if you could do it slow enough to be able to know which key combo ends up fixing the issue - it hasn't happened to any of the developers so far, and once it's fixed it seems to be permanently fixed for all of the players who reported it.

No key combination works, reinstalling and installing the application through the website do not resolve the issue either, I can still move my mouse and select the menus but hot keys and selecting units via the map do not function

Huh, odd. Can you provide the information listed at https://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?t=25660 ?

Game started working suddenly, my best guess is it was either caused by alt+tab or by additional mouse buttons being pressed

I encountered this issue and using my scroll lock key fixed it
Edit: using the key again will disable selections again, but it is toggle-able

Thanks, that ended up being the key - a permanent fix will be released this weekend.
