[GAMEPLAY] Unable to lock/unlock the camera when starting a match on Mac

When playing on Mac, when a match starts and we all spawn in, I find that I have to double click buttons like when leveling a skill up or clicking the shop button. I also start the game with an unlocked camera, and neither pressing the camera lock hotkey or clicking the button or even pressing spacebar will center the camera. The only way to move the camera is by manually clicking on the minimap and dragging it wherever I need it. From what I gathered, leaving and rejoining the match fixes it, but rejoining can sometimes take up to 5 minutes, which sets me back from the get go and also providing unwanted stress. Unfortunately, it seems to happen randomly, but it tends to happen more during my first couple games after launching the app.

Have you tried just pressing and holding the space bar? That center focuses the screen on your champion. I've played on a mac before and never had that happen to me.

One suggestion from me not doing it and regretting it...learn to play with screen unlocked. Yes it is weird at first but it's the best way to play League and you'll actually play better once you get used to it. Gives you more vision because you're not just locked in a certain camera mode.

Neither pressing the camera lock hotkey nor the spacebar works, and yeah I hope to eventually learn how to play w/out locking the camera, I just picked league back up a month ago. Whenever I do unlock the camera to look somewhere else, I lose track of time/where I am and the next thing I know Im walking into a turret or the other team lol, guess I just have to keep trying.
