Esc multiboard close for all players bug? - AeroniumX - 2012-12-07
When I play I sometimes notice that the multiboard closes by itself. I suspect it might be related to someone else pressing Esc, but I might be wrong.
It does happen sometimes in a game for no apparent reason.

BTW: I don't really like this function, because the [ESC] key is assigned to multiple actions now. Also it isn't very intuative.
For example, I often use [ESC] to close the skill menu and then, the multiboard opens. That's annoying...

Do you have a replay where that happens? You usually can see when this happens, even in a replay, so it might help.

No, but happens in most games. Quite annoying when it closes by itself.

Exo and i tried several constellation (different styles, opened/closed, while kick and not) to reproduce your problem with the current beta. But we never got any problems.

Personally I think it's way more handy for toggling the multiboard. I've never used it to navigate the skill menus and I guess it's the same for most people.
When comparing the pros and cons between the added functionality and the multi-assignement, I'm still for the multiboard functionality.
Altough I'm going to keep it as it is, I decided to add a new command "-mb esc", which enables or disables the escape key for multiboards. The default is 'enabled'.
I hope, that you are kinda satisfied with that, because that is as far as I would go in that situation.
Concerning the bug report itself I still have no clue what might be causing this behaviour. But the new command might help, I don't know.

Great solution, I'll just add that command to my "-zoom 4000 -rc" hotkey
BTW: Another important use of the ESC key is to abort a chat, i.e. if you need to react quickly while typing and aren't finished yet.
