I dealt with my jump button’s strange problem to a certain extent. It indicates that I jumped this turn by using a dash. Neither battle nor turn mode applies to me at the moment. No matter what I tried, I couldn’t make my character leap. Unless you’re following everyone in my party automatically. I had to skip over an area where I could have utilized stealth to avoid an encounter due to this, which was a major bummer.
Then I scorched the internet for the solution but an optimum solution was nowhere to be found. Then I did some trial and error and succeded. I’m gonna guide you to that solution step by step.
How To Fix Baldur’s Gate 3 Character Won’t Jump Bug?
The issue manifests itself in several ways, as previously stated. There are moments when the game will suddenly tell you that your character has “0 movement,” and other times when you won’t see any indication—other than the fact that your character can’t jump—at all.
Keep Baldur’s Gate 3 up to date
You may also install any current hotfixes to address this problem by updating Baldur’s Gate 3 to the newest version.
Verify the File Integrity of Video Games
Verifying the game files’ integrity may fix this problem or issue because it has worked for some gamers. Instead of reinstalling the whole game, this method only requires redownloading the files that are damaged or missing.
Character Swap
If I’m lucky, I can usually remedy this problem by switching to one of my auxiliary characters, which I can do by double-clicking their photo and dragging and dropping them into place. When it seems that your “clicks” aren’t being recorded on the map, this has been effective.
For example, clicking the ground with the left mouse button did not cause the character to move or show a marking. The problem would be solved and the trapped character could be controlled again if you switched to a different character.
Quickly travel via teleportation
Using scrolls or spells, you may be able to move the stranded character to a different area and then teleport them there. On the other hand, you may test the character’s ability to follow you by quickly going to a different place with your group.
The problem could be solved if you take a lengthy nap if the character follows you to camp. If you are unable to utilize fast travel while controlling that character, try switching to another character and accessing the map with them.
Before transferring, connect all characters by clicking their pictures or using the G key on your keyboard.
Revive Your Character After Killing It
Attacking your character until it falls and then reviving it at another location is another approach that has worked on occasion (but hinders your roleplaying). It has happened to me on occasion to just move the character to a nearby location when they get trapped.
Eliminate Things From Your Stock
If the character’s load is too heavy, it will become hampered and partly cripple them. It could completely immobilize the character if they’re carrying a lot of weight.
If a character has any obstacles, you may see them next to their photo. As you gain encumbrance, a big bag will show up beside the image. Depending on the character’s load, the bag’s color will vary.
The burdened debuff should be removed, enabling you to move again, if you slim down your character’s inventory. However, we have solid evidence that it doesn’t necessarily function as planned.
Even after removing the things from the character, the encumbered state may persist in certain cases. So, to avoid having your stuff burdened, consider transferring them to another character and then gently transferring them back to the one you want to free. Just make sure to stop before it gets bogged down.
Restore a Previous Version
I hope your last save was close by since you may need to load that save to continue the game if you’re stuck and none of the alternatives above have worked.
Make a Fresh Start
Restarting the game may be your only choice if your character is completely immobile in BG3. We recommend consistent Save scumming since many gamers experienced this bug even at the transponder stage.
Conclusion
In my case, It was only when I tried using the usual jump key that I realized it was because my gloves, Fleetfingers, shared the same hotkey. The object leap skill, which is meant for fighting only, is set as the default for some reason. I disposed of them just now.
So that covers how you can solve your jumping problem in BG3. Have great fun playing the GOTY 2023.
