Unable to open console (grave accent on US intl keyboard with dead keys)

Open PureTryOut opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

According to https://github.com/iceiix/stevenarella/issues/63#issuecomment-761291986 there is a console I'm supposed to be able to open by pressing the grave button ("`"). However, this does not open the console for me. In fact, nothing really happens.

There may be an incompatibility with virtual keycode mapping. Was going to suggest editing the keybinding in conf.cfg, but looks like this binding is currently hardcoded:

changing VirtualKeyCode::Grave to another value may avoid this problem. Non-US keyboard?

US, but US international with dead keys. I suppose the dead keys break it, as that key is one of them.

I changed it to F10 as a test and that works fine. So yeah the deadkeys seem to break it.
