Hotkey conflicts not working properly (priority issue?)

  • **GAME BUILD #: 100.12.20322.0 (But I got this issue in every previous version)
  • **GAME PLATFORM: Steam
  • OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows 10

:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

Hotkey conflicts don’t work properly when ‘‘find unit’’ and ‘‘build’’ use the same key.

Example given: I use ‘‘G’’ to build trading posts. But I also use ‘‘G’’ to find arsenal or consulate .
I can build trading posts using ‘‘G’’ as long as I don’t have an arsenal or a consulate built. Once they are constructed I can no longer build them using ‘‘G’’ since ‘‘find arsenal’’ seems to have a higher priority than ‘‘building TP’’.
This issue didn’t exist in legacy AOE3.

  1. Build the building binded to a ‘‘find’’ hotkey.
  2. Can’t use ‘‘build’’ hotkey binded to same key.

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

To be able to use both applications.

Check out how pressing ‘‘G’’ is redirected after arsenal is finished.
