Yeah, I wish we could handle the keyboard.csv switch a little better. I'm sure you're not the only one that missed out on stuff because they weren't aware of it. The problem is, the installer can't go and overwrite people's keyboard.csv's when they install patches because you would lose any customizations. Maybe we can figure out how to handle it better in a future release.

If the installer would make a backup of the original keyboard.csv you could make the change and document the change in the instructions. Most people wouldn't notice because they don't mod their keyboards and those that do would be savvy enough to update the new one.

Just one thought.

Yeah we've thought about that but virus scanners don't like it when installers start renaming files and moving them around etc. In fact I don't think our installer has the ability to do that so we'd have to create a batch file or some other kind of script to do it.

My understanding was that I could send someone to a point on the map,I just didn't know that you could route them.Changing the keyboard was easy when I did it. It's great to be able to read and learn in here.
