Can't pan except in Editor Modes

Hi, All:
I seem to have broken something while working on a game. If I'm in one of the editors, I can pan around using the right mouse button -- but once I get back into the game without any editors, I can't.
Any ideas why? This seems to be common to all missions, not just the one I've been working on. I don't see anything particularly relevant in the console, like "Right Mouse Button Disabled". The only message that repeats when I toggle back and forth from the editors is ... oh blast, I can't copy from the console in Mac OS X ... is
creator/editor/EditorGUI.cs (878): Unable to find object: ' ' attempting to call function 'open'
creator/editor/EditorGUI.cs (2973): Unable to find object: 'MessageHud' attempting to call function 'close'
This is sooooo frustrating!
Thanks for any insight,
MIchael Rogers

No: when I detach, I still can't pan. I finally just gave up and recreated, as best I could, my mission.Thanks for your response, Lee, I appreciate it.

I guess I should say that my original $defaultGame is tutorial.base. Is there something wrong with that??
Anyway, I switched to a completely different mod -- starter.fps -- and that works. But back in my mod, only when I'm in the Editor modes does the right mouse pan.
I'd paste output from the console, but I can't copy it (I'm using Mac OS X). I see a few remarks about:
could not register dust emitter for class: PlayerBody
creator/editor/EditorGui.cs: Unable to find object: ' ' attempting to call function open
creator/editor/EditorGUi.cs: Unable to find object: 'MessageHud' attempting to call function close
What really worries me is that I'm giving a presentation on Torque in 2 weeks at a professional conference, where we've got the undivided attention of several hundred professors for 90 minutes. I'm presenting on TGE, and swearing is not allowed, so I'm going to be somewhat quiet.
Seriously, I'd really appreciate any help -- recreating a mission every 4 hours does not seem like a particularly good strategy -- I'm getting ready to start my 3rd -- and I don't even know what's breaking.
Thanks for any insights,

... And it just broke again!! I'd tweaked something in my Player.GUi file, but I don't know what. I guess I should say that my original $defaultGame is tutorial.base. Is there something wrong with that??

If Caylo's post doesn't help, perhaps you could go into a little more detail? Are you talking about strafing (in midair) when you say panning? I may have misunderstood your problem.
