Game freeze on hotkey options screen

#1 Post by MatGB »

Geoff mentioned a hotkey I wasn't aware of, I went into Options in my current game to find what it was, and it said "FIRST". It says this for both previous and next idle fleet.

Having no clue what the "first" button was, I clicked it to edit it to something useful. I've never used the hotkey/keyboard shortcuts page, for some reason I don't really like them in FO, prefer mouse-for-everything.

When I click it, there's the sound of a button being pressed, and then nothing. My game has now frozen, nothing is responding, the mapwnd is still refreshing in the background but I can't do anything at all.

Nothing of use in the logs

Haven't tried restarting or replicating yet, wanted to record first.

On restarting, went into options and keyboard shortcuts, picked a different shortcut at relative random, complete freeze again, nothing logged. Turning on verbose now.

Well, that didn't help

No change to freeoriond.log

Over to you guys, I assume we're meant to be able to edit the shortcuts?

Enter a valid shortcut (eg. ctrl+f), or press escape to cancel.

Aha! Yes, that works. I was expecting a dialogue box, or at the very least somethign telling me what to do.
