Lose control/can't click on UI buttons when interacting with other programs/steam overlay

JayDeezus shared this bug 4 years ago
Outdated

So twice, I had Space Engineers running and tried to do something outside of space engineers, and both times I became unable to click any buttons or anything in the UI. I can see the world still animating, music is playing, the SE mouse cursor is still moving around my screen instead of the system mouse cursor, so it's not frozen. Pressing ESC doesn't bring me back into the game out of the menu.

Times this happened:

1. I Shift+Tabbed into the steam overlay and tried to stream my game to "anyone" by clicking settings and then adjusting the appropriate setting. I saw the "Live 0 people" in the upper right, but could not get back into the game. Shift+Tab removed the steam overlay, but I could not get out of the main menu.

2. I Alt+Tabbed and clicked on the OBS icon on my windows taskbar to start OBS. I went back into SE and I could not clear the UI panel that was open. I had the F3 player list open at the time.

HTH.
