Shoot on [Enter] triggers in text fields

[Elyviere]

Hello!

Since I'm using a split ergodox keyboard, I happen to have my enter key on my left keyboard instead of my spacebar (spacebar being on the right half only). Therefore, I've got the [Enter] key bound to the "Shoot enemy" action.

When typing in the game, e.g. in the chat or when searching for something in the inventory, I of course end the text by pressing [Enter], to send the message or complete the search. However, because my "Shoot enemy" action is bound to that key, pressing [Enter] always fires my weapon as well. While typing, obviously no other key performs their other bound action, i.e. typing "wasd" won't move my character around in a circle, so I'd assume the same should be true for [Enter]. All other actions for the key should be disabled while typing.

Problem: Pressing [Enter] while typing (i.e. to send a message) also performs the "Shoot enemy"-action if the [Enter] key is bound to that action (causing non-targeted weapons like the shotgun to fire)

Expected: Pressing [Enter] while typing only ends the search or sends the chat, ignoring all other actions bound to the enter button for this key press.

I can see two different shoot actions:

• Shoot enemy
• Shoot selected

Which one are you binding Enter to?

You should probably be binding to Shoot enemy unless you really want Enter to shoot anything (rocks, trees, chests, etc.).

And then Enter shouldn't shoot unless there's actually an enemy in front of you.

I have "Shoot enemy" bound to [Enter] and "Shoot selected" bound to [Shift + Enter].

Worth noting that my three weapons are the rocket launcher, shotgun and flamethrower, i.e. none of them require a target.

I've updated my original post to better reflect this, thank you.

[Kyralessa]

I don't know about the shotgun and the flamethrower, but the rocket launcher definitely requires a target for "Shoot enemy". Are you sure it still happens even with the rocket launcher selected?

[Elyviere]

I tested and it does not happen with the rocket launcher, thanks for pointing that out.

Now that I've got further into the game, I will add that the railgun in fact does not require a target, and my Aquilo base is very sad about that and now lives in fear of me opening up chat.
