Summarize your bug Stuck in Combat (Formerly "Focus Option Sometimes Disappears")
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I guess play the game. Not entirely sure how to reproduce it.
What happens when the bug occurs? Periodically while playing the game, I get stuck in combat. This makes it so that the focus option is unable to be used, i.e. force lift, force slam, confuse. This happened to me twice, once during a section of the game preventing progression (the second moon base run through where you need to lift the wall) was the first time. 'Resting' at a Meditation Point did not fix it, nor did going back to the loading screen and re-loading where I was. This second time it's occurred is just out in the wild while trying to lift and slam a perk container. Closing and opening the game fixed it. I DID change my default key binding for focus to tab, but have not had a problem up until the patch today.
What do you expect to see? I expect the game doesn't lose the ability to use the 'focus' keys.

I included screenshots because originally I thought the UI element on the bottom right was also not showing up, but it appears that element typically goes away once out of combat. In the first screenshot it was when hitting focus was not working, second is when it is working.

Edit: It appears instead that maybe I'm stuck in combat? It's not just focus. It also seems to be effecting BD-1's BD-Noculars. I assume there is supposed to be something done with him at the third photo which is in Imperial Post 8L-055.

Cal leaves the saber out despite combat being over. I can manually put it away, and the interface gets "clean" again. In the third photo I was able to jump off the balcony enough times to get a 'respawn' screen, and afterwards was able to use BD-1.

    I have the same problem. no matter the key binds on the controller or keyboard I use, I still can't use focus. I am also currently stuck in a chamber where I cannot leave without using the focus key button. I hope there's a patch that comes out soon to let me leave so that I can continue the game.

    It's not just that. Focus is able to be used in combat, and yet it doesn't work properly, because no objects/enemies are being highlighted. You may still confuse enemies, but you have to do it "blind", and lift/slam still doesn't work because the keys for that are also used by other controls.

    But in every case Focus wasn't working, I was also unable to use BD-1's features (besides maybe just saying "hi" to him if I hold on the BD-1 activation button for a second or two). The only way I've been able to "fix" it on my own (without restarting the game) is to get Cal killed in a way that forces you to respawn. Just falling too far down and immediately appearing back up, losing some of your health, won't work. You have to lose all your health and respawn completely.

    Edit:
    I also noticed that this same bug is making me unable to charge my blaster.

  • Having the very same issue, i tried to rebind focus but having no luck. Any solutions for being stuck in combat mode?
