Not tilde nor slash to open the command console
Posted: Sat May 18, 2024 6:17 pm
Not a bug(?) and not asking for help (my problem solved).
I've been playing for a week and frustrated only by not being able to open the command console (to set peaceful mode).
I am on Linux Mint with a "standard" Logitech keyboard ("generic 105-key PC (intl.)") and Factorio is 1.1.107.62234.
I have discovered that the command console opens when I type Grave-accent (back quote) which is the same key as tilde (~)
but used with no Shift key.
I don't know why this diverges from the documentation, nor whether the document ought to be extended (if there's a good reason
known for the discrepancy), but I am hoping anyway that posting this will either a) help others and/or b) trigger more elucidation
from others.
Anyway: now I am happy. The sitters were starting to wear me down!
