Star Trek Armada II: Fleet Operations

I suppose this could be something I've done, but I was playing and in the middle of the match the toolbar just up and dissapeared without warning (where you have the commands) I was curious A.) What causes this, and B.) how can i fix it, I tried everything and the only thing that got close was holding down the right click, that brought 6 buttons back but they disappeared after you used one of them  :crybaby:

Sounds a bit spooky...  :borg:
Did you also try "Ctrl + I" to bring your toolbar back?

tried that and it took and brought everything else back :(

the klingon is without the right click held down, the fed is with the right click held down, you can see the tiny build box in the corner.

I tired to toggle the X button but it wouldn't line up like the original button bar / tooblar.

a full reinstall seems to have fixed it but anyone know what could have cuased it in the first place?

i don't really know. i really would have liked to see your config files ;) i assume instead of a full reinstall deleting your config files would have also done the job

If I blow it up again I'll hand over the config files  :lol: :sweatdrop: but I was just in the mood to play  :innocent: where are they by the way? I am pretty sure I can recreate whatever I did (8 player map lots of dominion troops on the map had to have been clicking something in a retarded manner)

looking through the top level cfg files (rt_cfg etc) I didn't see any values the game used that would point to the position or the placement of the box, there were several notices for the toolbar/menubar but there was no actual values that would point to it being on / off whatever. If nothing else we can assume that its a configuration related value.

in 3pr they are still in the root directory of fleet operations, the .PRF files

ah I see them now
 well I don't mind playing with those values, I'll see if altering one of those will reproduce a similar effect but it looks likes its a game of adding something to throw it off rather than subtracting (as it just recollects the data anyway and then throws it back out)
