Why did the [F] [I] [R] [A] shortcuts at stations change?
« on: October 10, 2015, 10:08:48 AM »

I've just started playing this game again, since it's been a while. I like most of the newer changes (Salamanders are awesome), but something that keeps screwing with me is the quick options to get to the buy/sell inventory, buy/sell ships, refit ships screens have changed from the letter keys to number keys. Why was this done again? I've been playing for a good five hours now and I still hit those buttons every time I stop in to a station. Any chance we could go back to the previous setting?

I noticed this as well. Once you are in a menu the corresponding hotkeys work as expected, but from the initial menu using the number keys feels very odd.

At some point I'd added the 1/2/3/etc shortcuts (which are a good thing overall), but multiple shortcuts weren't supported, so the other ones went away. But I've since added support for multiple shortcut keys to dialog options, so in 0.7a, both work.

Yea, it's been like that for a while.  Glad to know multiple shortcuts have been added, especially with the Escape key making a grand return. :D

Excellent. Glad those are coming back(ish).
