fr-keyboard issue: can't move fov manually
« on: 2 March 2018, 22:46:38 »
Hi.

Using MegaGlest v3.12.0 (shared library v0.4.1) $rev$, from official ubuntu repo, with ubuntu16.04LTS.

During the game I can't move manually the window (the FOV I mean): if I try to, the fov moves down and right, always.. So I can move  the fov, but can't stay it somewhere: it always goes down and right. I've tried to change key binding but nothing best.

I also can't bind a group to a number, with ctrl+number or also with other key-binding.
So maybe something going wrong with the keyboard? It's a french one. Of course I have no problem like this with many other softs for years.

I thought it was a generic problem but don't find any thing about this.

Thats indeed something new, we never heard of such a problem. Are there any other devices pugged in beside keyboard and mouse ? A Gamepad maybe ?

Does this happen with the official binary from megaglest.org too ?

I tested the ubuntu 16.04 version and I saw some ugly key behaviour too. I had no problems moving the camera using the cursor keys, but for example "h" key was always klicked twice. This was a problem that was introduced by OS updates and sdl updates we had some time ago, but this should not happen with latest version from megaglest.org. SO please try this version and give us some feedback.

Like you, I can move the camera with the cursor keys, but can you please just try it with other binding? (like QDSZ for ex).
Just to be sure the problem don't comes from me.
Same problem with "h" key.

I also have gamepad and graphic palette linked by usb, but un-plug them don't change anything.
But I've discovered many camera possibility with the graphic palette! I hope I'll can use that with keyboard!

With V3.13.0 from official site:

I can now move camera with QDZS, and rotate. :)
But I still can't assign group!  :o

ctrl + f1 does not work for you?
Do you maybe use a latop and f1 is only reachable via fkn key ?
