Clicking buttons in battle using the keyboard #696

Closed PatBouchard closed 7 years ago

PatBouchard commented 8 years ago

I've run into a problem where I can no longer press the buttons to attack or switch when using the latest version of IE. This used to work, I played for the first time in a couple of weeks today and this is the first time I've had the problem. It still works on Firefox and Chrome for Windows, but I have a totally different issue in those browsers, which I'll post separately if this one can't be resolved. I can't see my computer screen, so I use a screen reader program to use it. For this reason I can't use the mouse, so that's why I need to use the keyboard. Right now I have to type either /move or /switch, which is a bit unwieldy, or use a keystroke to simulate a mouse click, which is really unwieldy. Have there been any changes to event handlers or something similar for buttons in combat? Or is this something weird on my end?

Oh, we changed how tooltips work in mobile, that might have affected this. I'll look into it.

Is /move a problem? It honestly seems like the best option for keyboard control.

PatBouchard commented 8 years ago

I could get used to it if it's not an easy thing to fix. Just have to go down to look at the order if I've forgotten it, then have to come back up to type. But it's doable.

You can also use /move [move name] if you don't remember the order...?

PatBouchard commented 8 years ago

Aha, I didn't know that, didn't even know about /move at all until I brought this up in the help chatroom. Sorry for taking your time, then, I probably could've researched a little more before coming here.

Well, this is still a bug; let's leave this open until we fix it

Zarel commented 7 years ago

With no leads, my best suspicion is just a temporary bug in IE, so closing.

PS doesn't do anything weird with our move buttons; just a click handler on a regular button.
