Backspace in map view doesn't reset focus to current craft in 1.2.2?

[Guest]

This seems to be different from previous versions. I can't find a control for it in settings. Nor do options upon left-clicking the craft in map view the include one for switching focus, nor can it be double-clicked.

In 1.2.1 the default was changed from Backspace to Back Quote ( the ~ button) to avoid clashing with the default 'Abort' action group.

  sounds like a bug of somekind.  i would try quicksaving and loading, or also hopping to tracking station and back to see if it still wasnt working after those.

Yeah, I've found that even in small "bugfix" updates, there are at least one or two changes like this that are useful to know. I make a habit of reading the whole changelog when a new version comes out.

Dunno. Did you perhaps start that game before 1.2.1 came out? That would cause the game now, even if it's been updated, to have your previous keybindings.

yea i just loaded up a sandbox save i have set for when i need to go in and test something random quickly,  its an older one so i guess that would be it.  well im glad i know this now so in the future im not frustrated lol

It gets reset to backquote if you overwrite/delete/rebuild your config settings file. If you use the standard upgrade path for patch releases, then your configs will be preserved and you will still have Backspace as your camera reset -- potentially forever.
