Status: offline 		Getting "Land units must disembark..." or "No available land hexes for..." alert messages whenever selecting fleet units in Steam edition of Warplan. Is this intentional or a bug? Thanks,

Maybe a screen shot?

Not aware of any bug like this. I see the message from time to time but it is normally something I did wrong.

Is the port and surrounding hexes full during disembark?

Status: offline 		Alvaro, no, I get the messages just moving fleets in mid-ocean. I can be far from port and get the messages.

I will post a screen shot later today although it really is not likely going to provide any more insight into the issue.

Can't duplicate the issue on replay today. Will save the game file and take an image next time it recurs and will post it here. Thanks,

I have had things like...cant place a unit then I have to do something else and I can.

Status: offline 		And now, June 21, 1942. The UK and US have declared war on Vichy France North Africa and have US units next to Rabat and UK units next to Oran. Both ports are empty and there are no enemy units near and I get the "No valid adjacent land hexes to disembark" error message when I click the "Show invasion/ Disembark Hexes D" button. I have invaded in many WarPlan and WarPlan Pacific games.

Curious. What to do? Am I doing something wrong?

This is it. Be sure to have this option turned off.

Status: offline 		I do have the option turned on, ncc1701e. I will turn it off and give it a go and report back. Was ready to uninstall Steam version and install Matrix version and proceed. Thanks.

Can you explain why it happens?

Status: offline 		In fact, this option is activating ALT, CONTROL, or SHIFT keys if you are pressing on their icon keys on the upper right of the main window.

Turned off the option (Ease of Access button) as directed and all is working well so far. Thanks,

Still don't understand what is happening or what I did or what or why? It is what it is.

Since 2019 I added a fair number of abilities that included a SHIFT, CONTROL, or ALT key hold.

Got it! Thanks, Alvaro. I am visually impaired and I used the option for this reason. I can manage with it off.
