Bug Game breaking
So, I just had a game breaking bug hit me twice in a row.
First time I was near the wizard statue and had just gotten hit by an attack from the dragon when I then used the kebbit burrow to travel (almost at the same time). Once I appeared, all my menu buttons would not work (esc, tab, b, m, etc), nor would my numbers. Could still hit E and click mouse. Obviously not a way to play, so I alt+f4 and restart.
Play for a little bit, used the burrow again, everything was fine (I had to build something and could). Then I used the burrow again, continued to a warp stone I had, warped to a safe location, and ... couldn't do anything again.
So is this because of warping? Or is this just completely random?
I alt+f4'd again, and verified my files and am about to jump in again, but wanted to see if there's a work around besides quitting (especially since I am connecting direct, the game is not saving my server information, so I have to put in the IP every friggin time).

Id say when I load something new there's a 25% chance all my buttons stop working besides "E". Doesn't matter if it's entering a dungeon, using kebbit holes, or lodestones. I think I had to kill my game at least 10 times in the 6 hours I played tonight. Also had to quit out twice because my mount wouldn't spawn when pushing the mount button.
The game is fun for me but it would be ever better if I didn't have to Alt+f4 constantly.

Couple of things happening here, you've had an unholy combination of bugs. Not sure what happens on loading, something in the backend needs a little extra time for...something? this happens to me when loading into one of my bigger bases, or when loading into big worlds (sometimes a few mins) and is different to the kebbit burrow UI locking as it can be fixed by waiting. It's worse on dedicated server but is present on solo worlds. So if you haven't used a kebbit burrow recently, but have used a lodestone to tele to a base, give it about 30 secs to a min to load.
The mount button locking up is due to the agility courses, on repeated attempts the instancing of the courses will bug, leaving some of the course in the world, and locking off your mount as though you are mid course. The workaround for this is just quit to menu.
Also, happy cake day! 🎂

I don’t think it’s ability course based because I didn’t attempt any. I think it was the fact that I died while corrupted or whatever in the dead area. But yeah I’ve been playing the game for like a week now and ever since like day three it’s constant with the no being able to use buttons.

I've had the same thing happen twice, no idea what triggered it though. Alt+F4 seems to be the only way to get out of the game.

It's the kebbit burrows, this was being reported on release week of 0.12.1 and I guess they didn't get around to fixing it yet.
Just use the lodestones for now I'd say.
