T, G do nothing in Battle of Solace Bridge

Title: T, G do nothing in starting scene
Reproduction Rate: 1/1
Blocker? Sort of, attacking anything while crossing the bridge is very difficult
Details: I found Charlotte and then went to talk to Edvard. Got the bow and the arrows then followed Edvard. As instructed hit Z to get my weapon out then my character stood and watched Edvard beating on some undead. Hit T a few times, didn't see auto-attack notification come up, didn't attack anything. Hit G a few times, didn't select any new targets. Stood with my bow out watching Edvard beat on the undead some more. Attempted to double click on the undead, succeeded about 50% of the time in initiating an attack, the other 50% of the time managed to select Edvard and was told to put away my weapon if I wanted to speak to him.

Is auto-attack enabled in your options menu?

 

That setting was removed in R38.

 

just saw a new addition to the draft that that's been moved back to tab.

• NUE: Players now start in traditional mouse mode (hold down mouse key to look) and the TAB key now defaults to switching targets instead of swapping you between “hold mouse” look and “free mouse” look modes.

 

OK, but that doesn't explain why T doesn't work.

 

I noticed a few things were broken like cruel-I to toggle deco mode. Not sure what's going on.

This doesn't seem to be an offline bug but a UI bug, or some design changes we don't know the extent of.

 

Well combat was working as normal (I won't say 'fine') last time I attempted it in online mode, but that was 476.

 

Same here. Tab stopped switching between walk modes in this last build due to the change. I hope the kinks get worked out. I'll get your bug report in the right section today so they can look at the changes.

Thanks for bringing it up.

 

Auto-Attack is the exclusive combat mode for the new player experience. Free Attack can be unlocked by speaking with a combat trainer and selecting advanced combat abilities. This will also unlocked deck building and the utility bar for new players.

By design.

 

What was once "G" is now "Tab". The option to toggle cursor has been removed, but can be reset to any keybinding manually from the options menu.

 

And I assume it only does anything if I explicitly target something?
