Right clicking produces inconsistent response

I am noticing an issue with the right-click to move functionality in SOWWL. This option does not work consistently for the player's officer ("Me"), with (in some cases) a period of complete non-responsiveness followed by several "good" clicks. There does not appear to be any relation to the facing of the officer, or whether they have been previously given a move order.

Does anyone have any advice on this?

Hi Buford, are you playing with the camera close to your character? Or in Grognard difficulty setting?

Might it be related to this?

I do sympathise, Buford.

3 years ago I experienced exactly this problem. None of my fellow gaming friends had it, and none of us could understand what caused it. I should say that GB worked perfectly on the same desktop PC.

I spent months trying to get it to work, including dowloading and reinstalling the game multiple times, but it made no difference. In the end, I just gave up on Waterloo.

About a year later I bought a laptop, installed Waterloo on that, and it worked fine. Without much hope, I tried copying that version over to my desktop, and that now worked fine too!

I am not tech-savvy and have no idea why this spproach worked for me, But it may be worth a try for you, if you can find a spare pc.
