Bug: Minimap cannot be closed when bound to Mouse Button 4 (Mouse 4)

 

Hello, I have been a long-time fan of the Battlefield series, and from Battlefield 4 all the way through Battlefield 2042, I have always bound my Minimap key to both the 'M' key on the keyboard and 'Mouse Button 4' on my mouse. However, in the new Battlefield game, there is an issue with this key binding. When I bind the Minimap to Mouse Button 4, pressing it once opens the minimap correctly, but pressing it again does NOT close it. On the other hand, the keyboard 'M' key works perfectly—pressing it once opens the map, and pressing it again closes it (toggle works fine). The toggle function for Mouse Button 4 worked flawlessly in all previous Battlefield titles. It seems like the game is failing to recognize the secondary press of Mouse 4 as a "close/toggle" command. Please look into this issue and fix it so that Mouse Button 4 can both open and close the minimap, just like in previous series. Thank you.

  • This issue has existed since 2042. Eventually they fixed it 2042 a year or so after launch.

    The only way to workaround it, is if you can bind the side mouse button to M itself instead of 'side button'. So if you press your mouse's side button, you're pressing M on the keyboard. This is a workaround.
