FIXED 5.0.11 - Shortcut button for rest '/' doesn't work for me

[Ramses]

In the latest build (5.10) I can't get the shortcut for the 'rest' order to work. It should be '/' but if I click this nothing happens. I have 2 '/' buttons, one on the keyboard and one on the numerical part of the keyboard and none works.

Am I doing something wrong or is it just not assigned correctly in-game?

Thanks in advance!

Ramses,

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. It's occurring on my machine too. I have stepped into the code and noted that the ASCII value when I press the slash key "/" is 191 or 111 depending on which key I use (keyboard or numeric keypad). According to the ASCII Table it should be 47. I don't know why this is occurring. I have asked a question on StackOverflow programming site and am awaiting a response from someone more knowledgeable than me on this subject. In the meantime you will have to use the Rest button on the Orders dialog.

OK the excellent advice I got from the guys at StackOverflow was that the slash is a special character and I needed to map the keycode manually. I have done this and hey presto it works like a charm.

FIXED

BTW It only works with the keyboard slash and not the numeric keypad slash. This turns out to be a completely different key.
