Stuck NUI focus — cursor locked, cannot move, cannot type, menu will not close
A menu kept control of your mouse and keyboard. Relogging frees it. Telling us which menu is what stops it recurring.
What you see
- A mouse cursor stays on screen and the character will not respond
- Typing goes nowhere, or into the menu
- Escape does not close it
What usually causes it
- A UI took keyboard/mouse focus and an error stopped it releasing focus
- The close path was gated on another action succeeding, so a failure left the UI open
- A browser dialog (confirm/alert/prompt) inside the UI, which freezes the whole in-game browser until the player relogs
Worth checking first
- Ask which menu or resource was open
- Ask whether Escape does anything at all
- Ask for the F8 text if the console can still be opened
Safe steps, one at a time
- Player-side: relogging clears it. Note which menu it was first — that is what lets us stop it happening again
- Staff: check the resource's close path for a condition that can fail before focus is released
- Staff: a native confirm/alert/prompt inside NUI traps the player until relog and cannot be escaped from Lua, because the UI holds the keyboard. Replace with an in-page modal
These are suggestions, not instructions. Do only what you are comfortable with, back up anything important first, and stop if a step does not match what is on your screen. Advice, risk and responsibility.
When to stop and ask staff
Escalate every occurrence with the resource name. It is a trap-the-player bug, which is worse than a feature not working.
