Standard console key isn't working anymore

#1 Post by ts7348 » 18 Aug 2022 15:59

The standard console key (the one under the ESC key) isn't working anymore.
I'm on german keyboard, game version 1.45.3.9s (64bit), Windows 11 (64bit)

This didn't solve the problem for me.
Some other ideas are much appreciated - thanks.

How about the key next to the left shift key?

As a temporary solution, try running the console on game windows where there is a text input field.
These are Job Market windows: Quick Job, Freight Market, Cargo Market, External Contracts. As well as the Save Game window.

Glad it helped.
In general, in both ATS/ETS2 games the operation of some keys on non-English keyboards is now broken. And it's not operating system related, everything is the same on Windows 7, Windows 10, Windows 11.
But on screens with a text input field in the game, the keyboard handler is apparently different and everything starts working fine.

Thanks for the explanation.
It's good to know that's not a Windows fault, so there is a chance, it will be fixed.
