Arma 3 update - forced to change scroll menu selection key
New, NormalPublic

Description

I updated the game to the newest official patch, and when I tried out a weapon in the virtual arsenal, I noticed that I could not fire my weapon at all.. But sometimes after I clicked "change firemode" and then hit the fire button it would instantly change the firemode back to semi. So I figured out that the latest update does not allow you (me in this case) to have a key binding doing two things.

I am using a customized arma 2 controls preset, and when I launched the game if asked me if it should change left shift to hold breath.. I clicked "No."
I tested if this bug was related to scroll menu select key, and it is. If I remove the select key from being primary mouse button, I can then shoot my gun. So for now I am forced to use middle mouse button to use selected in the scroll menu.. It's a bit annoying but I guess I can live with it.. I am just fearing this update has also changed other control restrictions, whitch I only notice when needing it to work properly.

Steps To Reproduce

Well I'd guess set arma 3 controls preset to arma 2 and fire your weapon and try scroll menu.

Additional Information

I tried to play an arma 3 modded exile server later on, I found a Titan AT, but my lock-on button did not work I gave it to my friend who has the arma 3 controls preset. It could not lock on for him untill he removed right click to hide the scroll menu.. Only then could he lock-on.. But this was on a modded server so this of course could just be a server sided error.
