I defined the only key "c" to switch camera. In this version it also switches camera when i press the volume down key on my laptop (Fn + F6). Didnt have the problem with the previous build.
I post here because I dont know how much you read bug reports on launchpad

Btw, I like the "darken box" behind chat text etc. It makes it more readable.

We may misinterpret the keyboard event there. Can you make a quick debug recording, just a local game (with no bots, if possible) where you only press the FN-F6 combination so we see how the keypress arrives in the game?

Here is the recording.

Thanks. The bit of the event coming in we read is indeed saying 'c', but it's not indistinguishable. Must be a quirk in the updated SDL we use for those builds and should be easy to work around, at least for the letter and number keys.

Thx for looking into it. Its nothing to worry about too much. Just need to turn the sound down until I am back on right camera and turn sound back on.
Another small thing I noticed: when I press "tab" for score table and then "esc" in earlier builds the score table disappeared but on this build it shows until I press tab again. Is this wanted? (I liked it better before)

[Z-Man]

Yeah, that's wanted. The reason the score table disappeared before was that it would render the menu on top unreadable, and now that's no longer the case. I mostly was disturbed myself by other automatic disappearances of the score table, such as between rounds or when you were chatting, so I got rid of them all. I may reintroduce some of them again, at least during fullscreen messages, it does get in the way a lot.

Is this already build? Cannot find it on launchpad.

[Z-Man]

yeah, remember snapshots are not on the main series so they're not on the frontpage:

Oh, didnt see that.
