Hello,

I'm using Linux OS Fedora Core 8, I've just downloaded a new version of OpenTDD and compiled. Everything is OK, but I'm not able to use keys from '1' to '9' to build the corresponding rail or road segments. The version of OpenTTD is 0.6.2 2008-08-01.

If I pres the key, nothing happens, I have tried to look into the code and I have determined, that in the file src/rail_gui.cpp on the row 568
e->we.keypress.keycode
is 0 if I press '1' or '2' ... and so on, but if I try to press another key, keyccode is OK.

but e->we.keypress.key is set correctly and i would like to play ;-), so I have tried to add something like:
|| (!e->we.keypress.keycode && e->we.keypress.key == _rail_keycodes[i])

and now I have
if (e->we.keypress.keycode == _rail_keycodes[i] || (!e->we.keypress.keycode && e->we.keypress.key == _rail_keycodes[i])) {
on the row 568 in src/rail_gui.cpp and it is working correctly. Similarly I have changed src/road.cpp on the row 486
and switch in src/dock_gui.cpp on the row 145.

It is a hack, I know, maybe somewhere in src/window.cpp about the row 1660... is the real problem, maybe not ;-) Meybe problem can be in the wrong determination of unicode...??? The earlier version 0.5.3. was working correctly.

Please, can you repair it?

Thank you for the OpenTTD, It's one of the best game of the world!!!

Have a nice day, if you have questions, please contact me via jaroslav.bayer@gmail.com
