:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

:point_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.

Cannot click anything in the ranked queue UI (civ, random, color or “I’m Ready”).

Sometimes my local mod file will also get corrupted, namely my own revision of “Bamboo Only” (Added support for new DLC trees), This can happen despite I lock the Write access of all users for the files.

:arrow_forward: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

:point_down: How often does the issue occur? CHOSE ONE; DELETE THE REST!

  • 100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

:point_down: List CLEAR and DETAILED STEPS we can take to reproduce the issue ourselves… Be descriptive!

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Finish a multiplayer game
  2. Someone invites you to join their ranked team
  3. Accept the invitation BEFORE you quit the current game. That means, you are still going through the post game stats or map.

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

:point_down: What was SUPPOSED to happen if the bug you encountered were not present?

Game should be functional and my local mod files should never be chagned.

:arrow_forward: IMAGE

:point_down: ALWAYS attach a PICTURE (.jpg, .png, .gif) or VIDEO (.mp4, YouTube link) that highlights the problem.

:arrow_forward: GAME FILES (SAVE / RECORDING)

:point_down: Attach a SAVE GAME (.aoe2spgame) or GAME RECORDING (.aoe2record) of the match where you encountered the issue. Link it below if using an external file service.

Hello, this is luckily already tracked issue, thanks for the report nonetheless.
Have a nice day.

Same here, non responsive UI in ranked game queue, after end of match when i click on “Statistics” I only get black screen and have to close the application from Windows. Happens very often, maybe for the last month or so. Just to add more details.

Yes, so the workaround is to exit the finished game before accepting any invitation.

Glad it is being tracked. I hope not only the freeze but the weird modification of my local mod file is also being investigated.
