| Summary | 0003497: incorrect string entry keybindings | ||||
| Description | interface.txt (0.31.16 distribution for OSX, likely others) contains the lines: [BIND:STRING_A123:REPEAT_SLOW] [KEY:}] [BIND:STRING_A124:REPEAT_SLOW] [KEY:?] where it should read: [BIND:STRING_A123:REPEAT_SLOW] [KEY:{] [BIND:STRING_A124:REPEAT_SLOW] [KEY:|] Resulting behavior is that typing a left brace or vertical bar in a text entry field produces nothing. Typing a question mark brings up help, and inserts a vertical bar. Disregarding the rather confusing (I would say erroneous) behavior that a single keystroke is interpreted to invoke two separate actions, it should insert a question mark, but the STRING_A124 binding apparently overrides the STRING_A063 binding. After the suggested changes, left brace and vertical bar keys insert the appropriate characters into the text field, while question mark brings up help and inserts a question mark. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Use the affected characters { | ? in a text field, such as setting a custom nickname on the embark screen. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

As of 0.40.01 release, upper 128 characters have been rebound. Many have, like 124, been bound to the question mark key. Typing a question mark in a text entry still brings up help, but inserts character 159 (small script f) instead of a vertical bar. None of these should be bound to question mark. |

The original issue here was fixed in 0.40.01 (assuming I understood your comment above), and the second was fixed in 0006558. I opened a separate issue for the incorrect STRING_A123 keybinding. |
