Oolite 1.65, OSX 10.4.8, 12" powerbook G4:
Hitting TAB doesn't fire an energy bomb, while hitting '9' does. Presumably this is a bug with the changes to allow strings in keyconfig.plist, as 9 is the ascii code for tab.
cheers,

It’s possible that you’ve got ‘key_energy_bomb = "9"’ instead of ‘key_energy_bomb = 9’, or <string> instead of <integer>.

I haven't touched the file since installing; I've just grabbed a fresh download and it's identical.Ahruman wrote:It’s possible that you’ve got ‘key_energy_bomb = "9"’ instead of ‘key_energy_bomb = 9’, or <string> instead of <integer>.
All the properties are <string>, none are <integer>. The file as it comes isn't in xml, the lines just look like:
"key_energy_bomb" = 9;

Actually I would prefer the energy bomb to be the 9 key, running a PC I'm always using alt-tab is to switch between applications. This is fine when docked, but in flight it fires off the energy bomb when you don't want to.
