PC Key mapping after Bespin update - "O" key

I'm having a key-mapping bug on the PC after getting the Bespin update - specifically I had the letter "O" (letter O, not zero) mapped to one of the cards in a hand prior to the update. After the update, "O" is used to open a chat dialog screen. Not sure if this is new with the update, but is causing a problem for me since the update whereas before there was no conflict.

When playing the game the first time after the update, pressing the "O" key would perform both functions - use the card in the hand and also bring up a chat screen. After noticing the problem, I remapped the chat to no longer use "O" , however that hasn't helped. I mapped the chat to a new key in the keymap (for all controls like human, vehicle, etc) but pressing "O" in game still performs both functions. 

This may seem insane given the location of the "O" key, but I am using an old Wolfking Warrior game pad which has an "O" key located near the space and "B" key. 

Can anyone offer some insight or is this a bug?

    @7SevenAnd7 Hey, I encountered a similar report previously, the rebind wasn't working properly, until they reset the binds to default. 

    After that the binding worked as it should. Be sure to bind the "Private chat" function to a different button too.

  • Thanks for the reply. I wish I had better news, but I set the defaults back in the key mappings and reassigned all the keys. When I fired up a game the same thing happened - "O" launched both the hand function and the chat window.

    I reset the defaults again, this time making sure to map the chat option away from "O" first and then remapped the other keys. Still no luck. 

    Anything else I can try?

  • Having the exact same issue.   Tried remapping the keys, no help.  Problem started today after the battlefront update.

    Yep, after some testing it appears that O will be hard bound to the private message response, sorry. 

  • Is there a chance that it will ever be changed so the key can be remapped?

    I'll try to find out, but unfortunately we don't normally get info on things like this, sorry. I'll update the thread if I get anything, though.
