This issue has been resolved.
Descriptive Problem Summary:
I've not been able to generate a simple test case for this, but it happens consistently in my project. I'm using Forum_Account's hud group library to generate a fairly complicated cluster of hud objects. In DS, clicking on any of these objects results in a click call, and examining client/Click() shows the object clicked (Hud_Object), and the control beneath it (default.map1). When clicking those same objects in the webclient, no click events are generated for the objects, and client/Click() shows null for all arguments. I manually set the layer of one of the Hud_Objects to a really high layer, and now when clicking it, it does register a click event and the client/Click() object, but control still reads null. I'm sorry I cant give you a more specific example at the moment. I've been trying to work one up, but cant get it to happen outside of my project. I'll keep working on it when I get a chance.

Sorry, I've got more I can't really explain.

This is the game in DS:


And this is the game in the webclient:


I don't even know where to start debugging that... I'll try tomorrow I guess.

Is this project available for me to test? It would help to be able to work on that myself, so I can see what's happening in the server.
