edit; sorry about title, misspelled. should read: shift, ctrl, alt modifiers bugged.
A. unbind zoom from the mousewheel
B. either in game or in hangar, hold shift, ctrl or alt and scroll the mousewheel
C. camera zooms.
also, this break something else
A. bind an ability to the shift key, ie: special module
B. press shift in battle to activate the ability while scrolling the mousewheel
C. the ability deactivates immediately sometimes.
it’s as if the shift key modifier is being released logically when the mouse scrolls, and then pressed again when the mouse is done scrolling.
no other way to explain that behaviour. i’m only pressing shift once, but the ability turns on+off… decloaks, pops a jericho torp right in your own face, etc…
furthermore, if you attempt to bind shift, alt ctrl via ‘autohotkey’, everything just breaks… its like the state of those keys is not being properly handled.
so you can’t even implement a ‘fix’ in autohotkey, since everything goes bonkers…
Learn how keyboard modifiers work on a hardware/low level software level, read up on switch debouncing. Try a different keyboard and the behavior could go away. The devs could possibly “patch” the issue, but blame your OS and keyboard more. Even if there was a reliable trick that they could add, it could hinder rapid key presses.
