The 'B hotkey' doesn't seem to be working?

Apparently, you need to have the "More Tools" panel open for it to work. (The one in the bottom right)

It will only work when a shooting unit is able to shoot that turn.

It should work whether the menu is open or not, but won't show any units if none are in range to shoot.

It doesn't. Noticed it before and just now tested to make sure. I have units in range to shoot. With the menu open, B selects them and causes a feedback noise. With the menu closed, B does nothing and there is no sound effect. The TAB shortcut for unmoved units works fine, though.

As for the other shortcuts, like line of sight or commander range, they can only be toggled on/off when a relevant unit is selected. The menu can be closed, however.

Very strange.

I just noticed that I have the same problem : B hotkey working only when the "More Tools" panel is opened.

B has never worked for me either, but it doesn't affect me much cause I carefully check each unit anyways.

The list hotkey? I should get back to using that again. I used it when I played Sengoku which is good to make sure all units get used.
