Tell me I am not insane...

Well, I was playing, and I tabbed out, and back in... and now, I can't left click on open areas to deselect units... tell me I am not imagining that I was doing it before..? My units just seem to be behaving odd, and I can't deselect them the method I normally do or at least think I did... tell me I am not crazy, and that I have enabled or disabled something on accident? I can't figure this one out, its really pissing me off and driving me crazy...

Thanks in advance..

Someone could at least respond with, yes you can typically deselect units by left clicking an open area or no, that was never a feature.. Ive tried everything and beggining to think I am just losing it and my mind is mixing games up or something, but I could've swore I was doing it..

Someone please at least put my mind to rest, lol. I feel like an idiot.



Edit: Also, when I say my units are behaving oddly, I will try to clarify.... they definitely are not behaving how they did before, and here are examples:

When I select multiple units and right click for them to move to a location, they, are not moving anywhere near that location and tend to spread themselves WAYYY out across the map in such a ridiculous manner that I have to individually select units and move them now, moving groups of units is impossible.

If I redefine the shape of a unit (Like, from a rectangular formation to a square formation) and then move the unit, they automaticly change it drasticly, especially my archers...

I don't understand what is going on, I never had any serious issues with how my units moved (There were minor odd and end issues, but none of this crap). I could be mistaken about the left click deselect but the way my units are behaving is something new, its like they are trying to arrange themselves in a rather spread out manner or something, and I cant pinpoint why. Please help, the game really is unplayable atm and its frustrating the hell out of me. I fired up Rome Total War and my units all behave fine in there.. so i know its got to be something I enabled or disabled on accident.





Edit #2:

Well, I believe I have sorted out at least part of my issue with my unit bahavior thankfully, though I am really not sure how any of it got adjusted as I never hit the keys, but at least thats better.. sorry for this rather noobish post, I typically don't have any issues with playing, its late, and i was getting frustrated as could be trying to play with my units doing whatever they felt like...

It could be.

It could be, what exactly? Me being insane? Lol.

Thanks in advance.

Insane? No.. But alt-tabbing with this game can cause more problems than it's worth. I had to reinstall the game once because the computer crashed while alt-tabbed out. and files got messed up in the process.

I appreciate the responses, but I still have yet to get a simple yes, you can typically deselect all units by left clicking the empty field, or no, that was not a feature.

If I could get an answer to that, that would be great. And if it WAS possible, then I will need help into figuring out how it became disabled, but that's another story. I have a wierd feeling I am just imagining it.

Anyways, if you can simply answer that, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

That one I don't know. The few battles I have fought I never changed formations.
