[40d17] Link up a Bridge Hotkey Problems
« on: February 15, 2010, 07:40:13 pm »

When adding a task at a lever, "Link up a Bridge" and "Link up Floor Bars" have the same hotkey (b). Interestingly, the second entry--link up bars--is chosen rather than the first. I was able to find this problem in the hotkey interface, but while I am able to add an additional hotkey to change one of them to Alt-b, I can't delete the existing hotkey for "b" so the problem persists. There is no text onscreen in the hotkey interface describing what to do to remove a hotkey and the old method (pressing enter) doesn't do it.

Updated: You can delete an existing hotkey by pressing Backspace. I was able to fix the problem and link my bridges to levers by doing this. The default hotkeys in the game files will need to be fixed up so that floor bars are referenced to alt-b(sdl)

Already known - see here (and here, as well as a few other places).
