Title: Comm menu
Post by: lord_peanuts on April 07, 2014, 12:13:09 pm

Hi all,
since my last post i've seen it is not possible to chose some highlighted choices in the  com menu.
In WXlauncher I added the custom flag: -keyboard_layout azerty
If highlighted the 1, 3, 5 keys are ok, the rest give no reaction.
Does anyone have a clou why this happens?

Is it possible that you don't have any friendly wings (2) or reinforcements (4) to call in, so they're just greyed out?

Hi General Battuta,

Even if these numbers are highlighted, pushing them has no effect. If I remember well, it is possible to chose:all fighters(1), attack my target(3), rearm (5) in missions with multiple wings.
Thanks for the quick response

I'm paying Derelict second mission now. I have to place nav beacons 1...4 in the ice belt.
Same problem: 1 does work, but cannot place beacon 2 because pushing 2 has no effect.

This could be a code bug (or limitation) in how the azerty keyboard support was implemented.  Unfortunately we don't have a lot of coders using OSX, and we don't have many using azerty keyboards either :(

Please post your fs2_open.log file.  Instructions on how to do this can be found in this post.  It may give some further clues that could help us find & fix the problem.
