uikeys not automatically loaded

[pure tree]

I need to run /keysreload everytime I run the game to load the bindings

Have you tried resetting it? Ie. change ingame Settings -> Control -> Hotkeys -> Keybind Preset away from Custom and then back.

if that doesn't work, you could try posting your uikeys.txt here, maybe there's something in there messing things up

[pure tree]

oh, i will check resetting it

Regardless, this is the file

[sharp edge]

Works for me.

I just put uikeys.txt into ..\Beyond-All-Reason\data, and loaded up a skirmish, since Settings -> Control -> Hotkeys -> Keybind Preset already was set to Custom. I could move the camera with the numpad keys and alt-a selected a wounded unit near cursor. So, I assume you just gotta reset.

What is the exact location of this file in your install?

so I realized what is happening

Putting the keybind to custom
disables the grid hotkeys

if i enable it in the control shortcuts -> then the grid shortcut fucks up
if i disable it in control shortcuts -> grid shortcuts work, but UI shows legacy build meny

I am a bit confused

I will experiment with this again on the weekend

till then I will do the workaround

[hollow spear]

When you set the keybinds to custom, you will get another setting that says something like "use gridmenu", you need to turn that on

setting your keybinds to "grid" or "legacy" will set the appropriate build menu automatically, but custom hotkeys obviously needs to work with both, so it gets a separate control

[pure tree]

Yeah, so that ducks up the actual shorty's

Shortcuts

The menu looks correct

Will make a gif when possible

Maybe this flow needs some changes to make it more user friendly
