ISSUE EXPERIENCED
DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.
I use the mouse wheel for several shortcuts, and since the recent update (at the same time the issue with Key 56 came up which was mentioned in another thread) most of the time they don’t work the way i was used to for years now. It’s difficult to break down, because in some instances it seems to work. The issue is that i use to scroll the wheel multiple steps at once and move it back and forth. If I use it just one step, there seems to be no problem. So, three ways i use it don’t work properly:
-
Unit production: If i scroll the wheel multiple steps up, multiple knights should be produced, but only one will be. If i hold shift at the same time, a ton should be produced out of multiple stables, but only 5 will be.
-
Split: If i scroll the wheel up and down to switch between flank and line formation, the units don’t “dance” as reliably as they do if the hotkeys are set to keyboard keys. Some of the time the units even don’t react to the wheel down, which should put them back to line formation, before they finished their move to flank formation.
-
Construcion: I’ve set “wheel up” to “military building” and to “palisade wall”. So, if it scroll it up two steps or more, i should instantly be able to build a palisade. But i have to wait an instant and scroll it again before the palisade appears.
It’s not an issue with my mouse, i tested several ones and it did’t make a difference.

REPRODUCTION STEPS
List CLEAR and DETAILED STEPS we can take to reproduce the issue ourselves… Be descriptive!
Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:
- Set “wheel up” as hotkey for “flank”, “knight”(or any other unit), “military building”(construct), and “palisade”(or any other military building), set “wheel down” as hotkey for “line”
- Enter a game and apply the hotkeys.
- You will see that the sound the hotkey make isn’t corresponding to the (amount of) actions it generates.
