I'm going through the tutorial, section on Player Attacks. When I left click to attack, I get an error (see below). I'm kind of confused because this is live action, but the error appears to be related to the Battle Menu:

Make sure your attack abilities are set up correctly. It should use the Enemy None target selection type, or a custom template/setup with Enemy target type and None target range.

It is set to "Enemy None", per the tutorial.

I restarted the entire tutorial in case I messed something up along the way, and I'm still getting the issue.

I'm running 2022.3.10f1 if that matters.

So this is strange. I set Target Selection Type to "Custom", Target Type to "Enemy", and Target Range to "None" and now it works.

Could it be a bug with "Enemy None" ?

I changed everything back to "Enemy None" and it broke again, so something is up with that setting.

I downloaded the completed tutorial and Level 1 is set to "Enemy None" but Level 2/3/4 are all set to "Custom", Target Type to "Enemy", and Target Range to "None". Still, it works fine.

Hm, I'll look into it - might be an issue with new projects.

Meanwhile, you can check what Enemy None is actually set up to use. You can find those Default Target Selections in Battles > Target Settings. The Enemy None one should have a target selection template selected with the setup I mentioned above.

Edit: Yeah, I think it's an issue in new projects where the default templates for None target ranges don't initialize some data.
You can fix it if you go to Templates > Target Selection Templates, select the Enemy None template and save.

Verified. Thanks GiL!

Hi @gamingislove, also confirmed is happening when upgrading projects, not just new ones
