Phase Inhibitor won't unlock

from Sins Forums

I just bought this incredible game and am slogging along learning the interface.

I am Advent.  An outpost was attacked.  I looked forward to this, because I had positioned a Phase Inhibitor to keep them stuck there there until my fleet arrived.

But when I click the unlock button, the Phase Inhibitor remains locked.  I've checked the Research options, I obviously have the research to make it (since I've made one!) but ... why isn't it unlocking?

Sorry to post, but I have searched this site and Googled 'how to unlock phase inhibitor' and I can't get an answer to why it won't unlock.

Thanks in advance for your help!  :grin:

? unlock button? phase inhibitors work passively; they do their job automatically.

the phase jump Inhibitor slows down the enemy phase jump time by 700% but you cant turn it off you have to scuttle it to stop it working

Ohhhh.....  the ability button shows a closed lock - I thought it was a toggle button that should display an opened lock.  So when the manual said I had to unlock it ... I was waiting for a different button-display!  Thanks so much for your help!  Cheers
