Nothing works when I'm in Server Browser

Anyone else getting this issue with this new patch? For some reason sometimes I load up NS2 and I click on Server Browser and then I can't click on anything. I have to quit out of the game, go into options or training or something first, then go back and then Server Browser may work. Not sure if it's an overlay while I'm playing the game or if this is a known issue in the build.

    Are you running any mods?
    (when you get to the main menu when launching the game, check the console for "mounting mod..")

    Not running any mods, and I did check the console... but now I'm not seeing it. So perhaps it's just something strange that only happens sometimes.

    Ironhorse pls, mods are not what causes this ;) . This is an old bug and we only know one thing, that it's not caused by mods. It just...sort of happens for no reason.

    Well that would be the second step, yes samus, but It's good to always rule out false positives first. (especially when they cause the large majority of tech support issues)
    To lend credence to this: I used a menu mod the other day that reproduced this exact issue.

    @Deck_‌
    Like he said this is probably the same known issue. (the 2nd link, the first may be different in that it is reproduced by changing between multiple menus)
    It's not currently being prioritized, however.

    Never had this before but since Patch 268 I got this issue also very often but might be related to something else - cant tell ya exactly. However Ghoul told me, typing "connect 1" (without "") into console fixes it. My experience now is that also connect 1 does not fix it all the time, sometimes I have to enter it more than one time to fix this issue.

    *Update - the "connect 1" (without """) into console did fix it for me. Thanks again. It's better than getting out of the game and going back in.
    It seems like sometimes you have to do this more than once for it to work.
