[FEEDBACK] CTRL+Z doesn't work for me

[ Edited ]
★★ Novice

I'm from germany, and my CTRL+Z (on German layout STRG+Z) doesn't work.

In addition the ESC to release an object, exit wall creation mode etc. too. Everytime I have to click the the onscreen button to cancel.

I already tried to reinstall sims, it doesn't work.
But strangely the ESC works in live mode (it opens the options menu, to save, exit etc. Game)

Does CTL-Y work (since y and z are switched on the german/english keyboard. It would of course be a bug but please try)

German keyboard issues

★★ Novice

I had wondered why the keyboard shortcut CTRL+Z to recovery the last step does not work in my game.
An EA support staff pointed out to me to try the English press CTRL+Y and to post the issue on this forum, since the developers have a look at this threads.

 

The attempt succeeded, CTRL + Y works.

 

In summary: Dear SIMS 4 developer team, please add the support for German keyboard layout - here are the Y and Z keys replaced.

I've merged your threads and moved to the bug forum. I'm adding to the list later.

 

 

 Thanks for confirming that.

Yeah, the QWERTY vs AZERTY issue. I'm Dutch but used to work for a German company. So at work i had to use a AZERTY keyboard and when i got back home i had to get used to my old QWERTY again for the first 15 minutes. 


So far i haven't seen an option to change the hotkeys, maybe there are some mods for that. Changing them in the file itself didn't really work Standard smile

I've added to the list and marked as solved since there is a solution to this although it needs fixing nonetheless.
