I have problem with WW/BM transporter temp power, that is in 20-25% of cases it will show selection window for split of second and close it immediately without allowing me select destination. After that, the power is gone, and I'm still in the same location, where I activated it.

Anyone else experienced that?
Are there workarounds?

I have not recently, but I did long ago with the CoV ferry system. It's definitely a bug.

Sounds like 1 of 2 things.

1) /sync The old sync issue behaved like that, where any menus/popups appeared only for a second, then went away (which is why the Pocket D teleporter was used to fix it because there was no selection pop up with it).

2) You are in a teleport suppressed area or are getting interupted, but the client isnt recognizing the interuption but the server is rejecting the menu selection because the power didnt really go off according to it.

Doesn't sound like #2: The Power got spent, Supression Icon for that power (30 minutes suppression timer) appears in the buff icon area, it stays there even after zonning or logoff/login. It happens in various areas: AFAIR in Talos, Ouroboro, Boomtown, Nerva, Dark Astoria, etc.

Besides behaviour I stated in OP, it also seems to be suffer from the same interrupts as Mission Transporter from Mac Pack
