:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

I have different hotkeys for all the dock researches and upgrades. There are two screens on the bottom left panel when one selects a dock. If I press a research hotkey (say upgrade to Fast Fire Ship) while that research is not on the screen (if we were in the first screen in this case) the research does not begin. This is unlike the hotkeys for training units which are accepted even from the other screen.

:arrow_forward: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

  • 100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Make sure there are no clashes between all the hotkeys in the dock. (This is not the case with default hotkeys).
  2. Start any game with a civ with most dock techs, make a dock, be in the imperial age.
    3a. Select the dock. Press the upgrade Fast Fire Ship hotkey. The Fast Fire ship research doesn’t start.
    3b. Alternatively, go to the second screen and press the drydock/shipwright/upgrade to Galleon hotkey. The research doesn’t start.

This is an interface bug and should be reproducible on any game.
