Missing control on PC port?

Post by CWolf »

Hi all.

Really sorry if I am being a muppet but I have searched everywhere I can think of...

I have Oolite on DozeXP, I press the ~ key and... Nothing. I thought this was the key for past messages?

Any help would be handy, I know it's only a minor control but still...

That used to work... I'll have a look before I make the next Win32 beta.

Works for me.

I've got the 1.65 (May 5th) release.

You could try makeing a copy of keyboard.plist and putting it in your addons directory and changing the mapping to some other ascii code. That'll tell you something about the problem but I don't know what.

Found it, although on my keyboard it's a different button. No suprise with this machine though.

The top left most key. Has the right angle, vertical line and ` on it.

Hold to keep log on screen.
