- ## Game Version: Standard / Premium / DLC - ## Build Number: (In-game in Settings Menu) - ## Platform: Steam / Microsoft Store / Xbox / PlayStation - ## Operating System: Windows 11 / Windows 10 / Windows 8 / Windows 7 / Mac / Linux > ## Issue: garrison hotkey is not counted for the warning of conflict hotkeys. use alt-x for garrision and use alt-x for expulse, you wont cant expulse using alt-x, and also the warning that alt-x is assigned to 2 hotkeys is not shown.
