This is not first time this topic is mentioned. Some people want one method, some another. Option to control meta key behauviour has been requested multible times, but as usually - ccp doesn't like to give us any options (as they always know everything better than their customers).

The entire keyboard shortcut system has been joke since the major overhaul. The developer who made it didn't have enough information/knowledge to do it and didn't research and test the old functions enough.
Now we have remapable shortcut keys with buggy features and zero possibility to customize 'em by opting anything out.
This is far from :excellence:
I'm pretty sure that the guy who coded this new system and all the patches to fix it, just isn't able to do it properly. Should assign the task to someone else. Sorry about that opinnion - just judging the results. --- This is one of the moments where we look at what CCP does and less of what they say.

I will wait and see before saying thank you. However if ctrl and alt no longer perform actions on "key down" and nothing else gets broken, you will have 50% from my gratitude.
Another 50% you will get when it becomes possible to disable "select item from over view and press shortcut key afterwards to perform action"-feature from options.

Ok so now the patch has been deployed and I've played few missions. The main problem with modifier keys has been fixed. They no longer activate on keydown if some shortcut has been assigned directly to them. I want to thank you for fixing this game breaking bug.
However option to disable feature which "allows" you to perform action to item which is currently selected from overview - is still missing. This is not game breaking but still annoying feature for people who use mainly keyboard + mouse to play. It would be really awesome to have following option box -> "X" do not forward shortcut actions to preselected overview item. This would bring the functionality back to the level it was before the UI "fix".
Anyways thanks for the patch. It was a good one.
