Cannot assign hotkey to caps lock/shift lock key

奋斗者 · |2019-11-25

Game Version:

Build 101.101.33164.0 4413571 (on steam)
Platform : Steam

Issue:
　　I cannot assign a hotkey to the caps lock/shift lock key.
Reproduction Steps:

Go to options > Hotkeys
Select any action.
Press Modify Hotkey
Press ShiftLock/Caps Lock.

　　The old hotkey stays available.
　　Expected behaviour : Caps Lock is registered as the hotkey for the selected action.
　　Remark : This works in starcraft 2 for example. I was trying to adapt this keyboard layout to aoe2 : https://tl.net/forum/sc2-strategy/333891-thecore-lite-advanced-keyboard-layout

　　Adapting theCore? How cool!
Maybe it will be possible for doing this via:

once DE-support is implemented.

　　I’m really curious about how you’d do this. I’m trying to get a halfway-decent grid-layout and that’s already difficult enough.
At the moment you also can’t assign anything to the F-keys.

　　Well for the moment I used TAB instead of caps Lock. The main idea is to have the main actions of each unit/building on space and TAB. E.g. : for a villager, build economic is on space and for the TC, creating vills is on space.
　　I only configured 10 control groups, I barely use more than 3-4 usually.
　　And I assigned the go to keys to alt + control group keys. (Like the camera hotkeys in the core in starcraft).
　　I haven’t played multiplayer yet though, I want to get confortable with this new setup first.
