ESOC Memes

It's definitely worse on DE. For example on legacy I've used P for both build and find a TP for years, and it worked perfectly well. On DE, I can't use P to build a TP if I already have one on the map, as it will just select it.
Similarly, I used X both to attack move, find a saloon and build a saloon, never had any problem. On DE I lost the first game where I built a saloon because whenever I'd try to attack move my units it would just select my saloon (and my units kept walking and died).

again, i maintain my conviction: the game has always been inconsistent with controls/hotkeys, whether it is DE or legacy. someone says it works one way and then others say it works in the opposite way for them. in honesty i believe both.

Yea this was definitely the case on RE. i had to re-bind every not-used hotkeys to a key i never use to be sure i dont be redirected on my mills when i want to attack move and other shit like that. Maybe the priority is given by the order in which you map your hotkeys or the complexity of the hotkeys (like ctrl+i > i) idk.

[Kaiserklein]

Well either way it should be fixed

I'm quite sure that the building/finding conflict worked the same on legacy, atleast for me. For example, if had "P" for both building and finding TPs on legacy it would always select it even with explorer selected. That's exactly why I always had ctrl+"key" to find buildings that I want to build more than once (e.g. raxes) and just "key" for buildings I want built only once (e.g. market). Basically I always used the conflict on purpose to prevent double market or double arsenal happening (as well as being easier to hit in game), while I had to play around the conflict with ctrl+"key" for military buildings, mills, etc.
So I really don't know. I also owned the game from all kind of sources (CD, steam, pirate version) so I don't think it's about different version of legacy game.

It would make sense, but it has to be random coding or something. There's one thing I know when it comes to assigning hotkeys. Manually editing the game files from text editor has priority over the in game hotkey system if such files are protected by "read only" attribute, which is the case by default. This might be the root of the problem or atleast related to all the hotkey conflicts/ impossible to unbind issues.

If ESOC Maps Team Garja and Advanced Player Jerimuno can't convince you, I don't know what can!

Btw kaiser whats ur solution rn? I used p for both now im doing shift p and p which is no good solution for me. Same example i used t to build tc and find tc. Kinda crappy de feature

[Kaiserklein]

I just don't use a hotkey anymore for building TPs besides the first one. It's annoying.

Would have been more on point if you used a Tekkousen; otherwise great meme.

I thought that in a poll they made most people said they wanted usa so the meme is incorrect

Ah sorry, I did this meme for two reasons, first because if memory serves me, no one asked for that civi, and in the official aoe forum the vast majority of players (myself included), showed their disapproval.

[blackout]

Pretty sure "vast majority" is a subjective feeling of u and in fact not true as well @EliteRifleman

Virtually everyone is rejecting the idea of ​​a civi USA.
I really didn't check if they thought the same here at ESOC, because I thought they would think the same.
