Troops won't attack

[Elystan]

Sorry for double post, didn't know which section was preferable.

Basically my troops won't take attack orders. Whenever I select a unit and right click (technically control click as I'm using a mac) on an enemy, the game makes a sound which indicates that it's registering the action of my clicking, but the unit itself doesn't move. It'll take move orders (so it's not just that I can't right click using a mac), and when given an attack order will stop what it's doing to stand there doing nothing.

I can't even complete the tutorial because it's impossible to order my archers to fire. It just place this sound whenever I try.

Well, there's a problem I haven't seen before

Can you describe exactly what happens? And when?
Does this occur when you start a battle, or after some time?

I start a battle, select a unit, am able to give move orders, order the unit to reform etc, but ordering an attack simply makes the game play something like an 'error sound'. Double clicking as if to order a charge I can hear the commander yelling the order but the unit doesn't actually move.

Archers will still fire at will, and units will fight back if charged, the only problem is giving the order to attack.

Try installing a patch to see if that would help. THis sounds like a bug.

I think I've got it, it'll be a mac issue. ctrl+click is a right click but ctrl+click also selects units in groups like shift in older RTS games?

edit: found a solution
