I just had a bug occur, that although seeming exrtemely rare, is potentially game breaking in severity.

I moved played a turn with one of my heavy mechs and then reserved the other one to move with my assaults.

Then when I tried to click one of my pilot portraits, my turn was skipped instead, leaving 3 mechs standing still. What I find strange, that the "DONE" button that is generally shown when no unit is selected in initiative phase 5, was not visible, but the game acted exactly as if I had pressed that button.

Depending on the situation you're in, that might be enough to destroy a mission, maybe even a whole ironman run.

I've had some other weird UI glitches happen as well, at random but rare frequency. For example, a mech turning into opposite direction than intended after moving, or using regular move instead of sprint. But these are not as serious as skipping the entire turn. That can really ruin your game in some circumstances.

And now it happened again. This time I didn't even click anything. 3 of my mechs hadn't moved yet and the game just didn't give me another turn before all the enemy mechs started moving again.

This sucks, thankfully this was an easy mission so it didn't ruin my game this time.
 
This strangely just happened to me in the Defend Smithon mission which made me restart since two turns of mechs focusing on the fuel tanks mean you lose. It might have been more than one turn, because the one dropship came and went before I even had a turn. I heard they're done patching this game, but hopefully a mod can fix this issue because it's infuriating. Glad I'm not alone I guess.
