I wanted just 1 key to toggle Expand/Collapse the Empire Tree window.
By Default the keys are:
Collapse All Planets: ;
Expand All Planets: Ctrl+;
So, I changed the Expand All Planets to just: ;, so my keys are now like this:
Collapse All Planets: ;
Expand All Planets: ;
But that does not work! I can collapse the tree using ;. But ; will not Expand the tree. I still have to press Ctrl+; to expand the tree, even though the Key Bindings screen says it is bound to the ; key, and not any other key!
Even weird-er is that I can collapse the tree pressing either Ctrl+; or Shift+; or Alt+;. For some reason, the game still looks for that Ctrl, Shift, or Alt with the key!!?? I have ended the game and restarted it to make sure the key bindings worked, as I thought they may not take effect until the game is restarted for some reason. But that made no difference, the game will not use the ; key for the collapse Empire Tree function.
Maybe some keys cannot be the same as other keys, but it still lets you assign them even though they are being used by another key? But it seems features like this should be a toggle, using 1 key, not several keys IMO.
