Working in PB4, I encountered a strange bug where if the user pressed a button on the toolbar that openned another screen and didn't move the mouse, the screen wouldn't open.
If you moved the cursor off the toolbar, the screen would open as normal.
To fix this, I wrote code to automatically move the cursor down and to the right. A couple of weeks later I got the same bug report back. The user was moving the cursor back over the toolbar (after it was automatically moved) and so the screen was still not openning.

Our official responce was... "Don't do that!!!"
Hasn't any one out there played the real first RTS? The Ancient Art of War?
Now there was a game that allowed for supply lines, stradegy types, and had a good AI to combat against.
