"Insert - Casualty list (also number pad 0) "
Using a laptop I do not have the additional numeric keyboard
Is there another way to see the casualties list?, I tried (I think) every combination without success)

The casualties can be seen on the INSERT or numpad 0 keys. If that was missed from the patch notes, then apologies.

We moved End Turn to the enter key on feedback from people who were finding themselves hitting SPACE by mistake. If people desire the ability to be exactly as before, we can add in some customisation to allow that.
Do you not have an Insert key either?
You can call me junk - and type that with one hand.

Add to this, my Enter keys do not end the turn. Neither the keyboard nor numpad Enter keys. Spacebar deselects a selected unit.

I have 2 Insert keys, one is numpad 0 and the other is with my prtscn and sysrq. Windows XP

Sounds like they really need to create a new HOTKEY pdf ...

You know, the old style keyboard overlay showing a top down keyboard with color coded keys....

No, in Macintosh there isn't a "insert" key (MacBooks's).

I'm baffled as to why your RETURN key wouldn't send the appropriate message. I'll take a look, but it work exactly as every other key hook.

You are correct - the mac laptops seem to be missing pretty much all the nav keys. I will add in some keyboard additions for the mac laptops. If nothing else it would be very tough to use some of the editor keys for scaling etc IIRC. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Cheers

Hey Pip

Could you in fact store key configurations in a text file (with an option to reset) so that that one could modify the hot keys as needed (I too use a Macbook Air)

I found the key for casualties, in my MacBook Air is with the "-" key.
