What did you do?
I use home/end as keys on my steam controller to smoothly zoom in and out (if I map it to scroll wheel, it's jerky, in steps, and doesn't repeat)
I pressed home in space, on my space platform


What happened?
It went into the system map (and zoomed out which was expected)

What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!
Home is not in the controls/keybinds list. I expected it to do nothing, or be rebindable in the controls settings.

Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?
Always

If you can reproduce the issue, provide the exact steps!
I mean look for the home key in the controls settings. It's not searchable, nor is "open space map".

Provide Attachments
yes

Yes, I'll shift to using pgup/pgdown or something now, this is ALMOST a non-issue...except for the larger issue of keybinds for SA being unbindable!

Thanks for the report however there are no key-bindings for the home key in Factorio. I suspect your steam controller has mapped the home key to some other key on the game side. Try going into control settings and binding something to that key and see what key it says is actually being bound.

I am Having the same issue. I press home and the system map opens. no hot key for System map is in controls, and when attempting to bind another action to the home button it shows an binding to the home button.

i am not using steam input.

after i typed this, i tabbed back into my game and started pressing home and it didnt happen again.

did binding home to a key and clearing it do something on the back end perhaps?

Maybe this is related to the next surface/previous surface hotkeys that by default are mapped to Down/Up arrow keys

OK:
@Twinsen you are on the right track - some defaults from SDL?


I can update the steps to reproduce:
[in a situation where you have a space platform, and a regular base]
1: Open remote view (e.g. tab)
(verify home/end do nothing)
2: left CLICK on any surface in the list of surfaces (E.g. space platform)
3: Press home and end and watch it skip to start and end of list.

To remove the steam input variable, I rebound zoom in/out to pgup/pgdown (in factorio, and in steam input).
Then to further remove it I used a regular keyboard only, and pressed home on that.

Next/previous surface up/down keys work just fine, and do not appear to give focus to the list like clicking on it
Just for giggles - the END key on the keyboard goes to the end of the list too.
This is now [2.0.11]

This is fixed for Version: 2.0.13. Thanks for the reproduction steps.
The issue was that the list-box would react to the Home and End keys when focused, a default behavior of listboxes. Now it won't react to keys anymore. The global next/previous surface keybinds will still work as expected.
