Cycle through active ships using swedish keyboard layout

[martinws]

I don't know how to cycle through the active ships using this swedish keyboard layout. I know that you are supposed to use brackets but it does not seem to work. I am running windows 8 and the brackets work fine in other applications.

I guess I could use another layout just for this game if it can't be solved in any other way.

This is my keyboard layout. Any help would be much appreciated!

As non English speaker I may say that switching to common English layout is most appreciate way to play absolutely all games. If you will find bracket today, you will miss some other key tomorrow.

Well, it would be the first time after 25 years of gaming. Thanks for the reply, though.

The button immediately to the left of the backspace key, ´ , cycles through your active ships one way. I am still to find the key for the other way.

They should be the two keys to the right of P.

In any case, you can always go to Settings / Input / Misc and set up your own keys to do the task.

"?" and "´" directly to the left of the backspace.

Just go to the settings, keybinds, and switch the keys for switching vessles to a key you have (and want)

I'll try this out when I get home. Wow, I can't really understand how I missed finding these on my own.

True, thanks. Out of curiosity, I will assign some task to AltGr + 8 and see what character actually shows up.

On my keyboard the game takes AltGr as a separate key (and calls it Left Control) so no combinations are possible.

I still think they are keys which correspond to physical positions of [ and ] on english keyboard. Because using my keyboard, I have this function on "ú" and ")" keys (my keyboard reads "qwertzuiopú)"). So on yours I'd try the same, the two keys between P and Enter.

Not playing right now but if I remember right [Ã…] and [^] should work. I don't look keyboard when typing (or playing) but those keys feels right.

Ok, I have now tested the controls. [Å] and [´] apparently works. When assigning tasks to these buttons it actually says left and right bracket respectively. To conclude, KSP does not use the ascii values from the keyboard but some other mapping.
