Modifier's ALT,SHIFT,CTRL key not work with FUNCTION keys F1-F12
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

To me this is a game breaker... For some reason CTRL-F1 or whatnot will
trigger whatever is F1 and so on. It removes a ton of customability on the keybinding facet of the game. F1-F12 seem to be more hardcoded in the game, but that should not matter, CTRL-F1 is not F1 and can be clearly distinctive, not sure why they trigger what the non modifier is.

Is it because of things like A+S that this is removed? maybe spend some time and weed out the kinks and make it happen?

I like to command 63 other players in the server, in TS3, I have a g19 and would love to use my Gkeys to bind my chat channels, so I can talk to air, infantry, fireteams, etc etc via those G keys... As I have enough keybinds already for self use... using CTRL F1-F12 etc.. Would open up a new realm of management, and make commanding so much simpler and clunkyness free.

I would imagine it would also open up managing your squads as well a lot easier.

Steps To Reproduce

Try to bind CTRL-F1 thru CTRL-F8 to any keybind... By use of those keys, the default hardcoded F1-F8 will trigger when pressed.

For what its worth... CTRL 1 THRU + are also not possible to use... So many great keybinds wasted... ALT-1 THRU + not tested but sure they don't work either

And the more I play, CTRL-anything would trigger the normal key..

CTRL-Z would trigger z...

At this point I am wondering how the game even operates with its other multi key binds? Totally baffled why hitting SHIFT X would trigger X

Basically it appears you have no consideration to an outside keybind.. so binding SHIFT-X is not bound in game, but its bound to my teamspeak.. so for some strange reason, your engine goes, well its not a bound key lets just take the unMODIFIED version.. and process it....
