Player defeated message stuck and bug

Ok, on my TD, when I player is defeated I get a bug that wont let you see where you are placing a building and also cant see any of the tool-tips.

This is the trigger for player defeat:

P1 Lose a Life

Events
Unit - A unit enters P1 WP19 <gen>

Conditions
(Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Player 12 (Brown)

Actions
Set P1Lives = (P1Lives - 1)
If (P1Lives Less than or equal to 0) then do (Game - Defeat Player 1 (Red) with the message: Defeat!) else do (Do nothing)
Game - Display to Player Group - Player 1 (Red) the text: ((String(P1Lives)) + lives remaining!)
Leaderboard - Change the value for Player 1 (Red) in (Last created leaderboard) to P1Lives

When a player is defeated, the message "Player x has been defeated does not leave the screen and that placement bug occurs. I think it has something to do with tthe fact the message does not go away.

Any help?

Thats actually a known game bug that occurs to all custom games when someone is defeated before all of the other players, and according to blizzard "will be fixed in a future patch"...

Absolutely nothing. Take away all the players units and buildings and he will then leave on his own.

Since mine is a solo TD, when the first player is defeated, that is it, the other 3 are unable to continue playing.

This is really pissin me off, there has to be a solution out there, i have played maps where people leave early and the game works, but I am unable to open thses maps, they are protected.

Anyway, I think you can!!!

YES, I think I know a way.

Put every player into cinamenic mode for 0.1 seconds to fix this, I think anyway (could be something else used in a cinematic, since I found this out in a map i played and got the tooltips back, YAY!).

Use Enable User UI for (All players) after the defeat
or it might be Pick every player in (all players) and do Enable USer UI for (picked player)
