[1.1.19] Number key selectors active when setting train limit

Post by Farzag »

In the station menu, you can enter a number in the new Train Limit field, great.

If that field is not active, pressing "1" selects item #1 in the hotbar, which is not very useful and a bit confusing.

I'd suggest disabling that. As a bonus improvement, make any number key press enable the train limit and put the keypress in that field so I don't need to first click to enable, then click the field, then enter the number :)

I see this as more of a suggestion

I agree that my suggestion at the bottom is a suggestion :)

Since selecting an item from the hotbar is neither useful nor meaningful, I do think it's a bug that it happens.

For me, it happens all the time as well, as I go through hundreds of train stations to enable the limit, and sometimes don't quite hit the checkbox before hitting 1 or 2 or whatever.
