UI for lobby messed up since that last patch. Did have mods installed at the time the patch came out so I disabled, still experienced this. Was using steam version so I tried the PA Launcher version, still no luck. So then I uninstalled everything, cleared out any leftover folders and reinstalled. Still to no effect. I can still play games but only if I host them as it won't show me open games. Also I have tried F5, it doesn't do anything.
I am having the same problem and can't figure out a solution. Have verified the install, but there is no improvement. With the latest patch (and lobby changes) the lobby UI is still very messed up for me, just in a different way. When there was no READY button, host would eventually launch and the rest of the game would work fine. Now that there is a ready button, I can't seem to launch at all because I have no way of pushing it.
This is how it looks for me currently under build 62559. Note that although the READY and LEAVE buttons are visible, clicking them does nothing. This means I can't play or join any games, multiplayer or vs AI.
This looks a lot like there are some js errors. You probably tried already to disable all mods? Also I've seen this as well in some cases while doing modding on the scene after pressing F5. I could not tell the reason, just that it didnt seem to be my direct fault, some js error had killed the UI, but it was not caused by my direct modding changes. Had to restart PA in that specific case.
SOLUTION -- problem was in fact mod related. OP mentions he still had problems after disabling his mods, however disabling mods via PA MODS MANAGER cleared it up for me. Just goes to show, it always helps to try all solutions, even if others have said it's not the problem. Thx for the fast reply Colin.
I have tried toggling the mods on and off one by one, and cannot recreate, but in disabling the mods, I also uninstalled and reinstalled, so it might be old data that was causing the problem.
Can anyone please tell me all the different directories I need to clear to verify everything from this game is gone? Registry locations? Before I try to reinstall yet again.
The settings, mods and all that stuff is installed in: Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Uber Entertainment\Planetary Annihilation On a typical install %LOCALAPPDATA% will be C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local OSX: ~/Library/Application Support/Uber Entertainment/Planetary Annihilation Linux: ~/.local/Uber Entertainment/Planetary Annihilation (Copied from the Beta Mod Changes thread) You can delete that whole directory, it will be recreated when you start PA. The actual game content is whereever you installed PA in the first place.
