Hi, I have equipped a automatic rifle and a shotgun in my weapon slots and ammunition for each of them. Pressing Q does not change to the next weapon. I tryed to rebind the key to X, but the problem was still unsolved. The keyboard is a german one, but Q is on the same place there.

Bob's mods are installed, so there is a possibility, that it is a problem with the mod.

Bobs does not change key-bindings, could you post your config.ini from your application directory (https://wiki.factorio.com/index.php?tit ... _directory)

Here it is.

Are both the slots green? Can you post the save game?

They should be both green? Ok I took a screenshot, just in case, that it works normal for you. I have installed the Tree Farm lite mod also, so i guess you need that to load the save.

Using your config.ini, save, mods and german keyboard I can replicate the issue, but only because you bound the key to X.

The reason is that X is already reserved for Inventory - Change active quickbar and it won't work if you also set it as Next weapon.
If I rebind the weapon switch to Q (default) or B for example (unused) then it works.

Thank you! I changed it to X only because it was not working with Q. Now it works with Q and also with B. So if anyone encounters the same problem, just try to change the key and change it back to normal. I think the thread can be closed.

Thanks to everyone for the help.
