Planes and Troops won't move

I'm currently playing the Allies on the map following Pearl harbor and almost every turn now some of my units do not respond to movement orders. The units haven't performed any actions and highlighted hexes appear showing their capability but no movement occurs. This only seems to affect Air and Land units at this time. The only workaround I have found is to save/quit-to-desktop/reload and the units become unfrozen. This is starting to happen every turn and is REALLY frustrating. Any help would be greatly appreciated...as would a patch

Can you post your output_log.txt file from when this problem occurs?
It sits in the <game root>\Order of Battle - Pacific_Data\ folder. For Steam, the default folder path usually is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Order of Battle Pacific\Order of Battle - Pacific_Data\

"The extension txt is not allowed" tried pasting..."Your post looks too spamy for a new user, please remove off-site URLs"

I've experienced this issue as well for all types of units. When it happens, I click around until I find a unit that does respond. Then, the other units will respond too. Not sure why this happens.

There is nothing in INeverPost's logfile that indicates an error. Can this issue be repeated in a savegame?

How to get a Directx Dialog file:
1. click on "START"
2. click "run"
3. type in "dxdiag" and click "OK"
4. check through the tabs and perform all tests
5. click "Save all Information..." and save the text file to a location of your choice
might be better ^^, or uninstall and make sure folder is wiped and also those in mydocs etc, then and only then, reinstall and repatch,as it sound like files maybe missing or faulty etc
with steam just do a folder check / refresh or what ever it's called to check all files etc

Had it once in Java (land) so far, but it was gone after exit/reload. So I thought it's a temporary hickup.
Let me see if I still got a save of that ...
Edit: Turns out I have two saves of that scn, but can't reproduce the error.

Do you use the most recent hotfix? Just wondering whether it's related to the general Java slowdown prob that occured earlier.
Because the one time it did happen for me earlier was on Java pre-hotifx too.

It did happen to me in many scenarios so far. To remedy, I click on the unit, then click with the right button anywhere on the map then I use the left button to move. Usually it works right away but sometimes I have to do this a couple of times before it goes back on track and then I'm good to go...
And this was before the Fix and after it as well.

I havent loaded any hot fix yet, waiting for the patch release. Have not played game since I posted my own problem with non moving units.
