<![CDATA[Menu Overlay Bug]]>

In one of my last sessions, I had a bug where the menu overlays would not close. I could still move around sometimes interact with items, but the ESC and Tab menus would not leave.

I took a video to submit as a sample, but I wondered if anyone else had experienced this. This was the firs time I encountered a bug like this one and found it very frustrating. I was planning to close and reenter, but it did seem to fix itself after a couple minutes.

And, before anyone asks, it was not an issue of me not clicking the screen after alt-tabbing. I know that can sometimes cause a similar, but quickly fixable, issue.

Thanks!

@devtryak

Losing the ability to jump is rough! Glad you know a workaround!

@callmebackdraft

Thanks! I appreciate this. Maybe that is what I did. Cannot recall now.

@capn-cayde

I have an issue similar to this happening to me where I will clearly click down on my right analog stick to jump, I have that as my jump button for PvP reasons, and I won't jump, but a solution to this for me is to go onto a ladder and then get off, so I think it might fix it if I were to sit in a chair or something. I'm just praying to The Pirate Lord that my jump problem doesn't happen when I'm PvPing, otherwise I'm in some serious trouble. I hope that you find a way to fix your problem so that you can sail the Seas properly.

@capn-cayde its an issue that can occur if the game gets confused if your in a menu or not.

If it reoccurs open a inventory (barrel, storage crate etc) and walk away from it.
