Has anyone noticed a self destruct issue regarding the 123 hotkey setup? If you use hotkeys for weapons, you know what i mean without further explanation. If not, please do not post. I have lost 3 ships recently due to this:
Details:
1) Set Hotkeys to use 1,2,3 for weapons
2) Using prior stated Hotkeys in combat scenario
3) ship destroyed (self destruct): NO WaRnING, nO TImER, NO cOUNtdOWN, not KnowInglY seLF inItiaTeD
4)ConFuSEd
End result:
----->>a perfectly good ship destroyed by self-destruct
----->>from a random key-combination associated with 1-2-3 and one of ------>>the following (alt, ctrl, spacebar)<<------------
What has anyone else seen similar to this?

Sounds strange and i haven't have it happen before but i have had,
Press again to confirm self destruct when i was only using the 123 keys and accidentally Crtl instead of shift.

OOOOOOOllllllddddddd bug. Still around. Happened the other day to me as well. Nothing new tho. Never have figured out what key combo it is that does it. But I never thought of the fact of the 1-9 keys. I usually do keymap certain weapons in groups and such, even tho I don't necessarily use them all the time. But it just so happens I was the other day when it happened, and I wonder if it is a combination with the shift key now. I was detting torps, and using the shift+space to do it instead of shift+mappedkey, but I was using the keymapped keys to fire my weapons in cycles at the same time. I dunno, maybe that helps u limit it down further?
Either way, it is a really old bug, and I hadn't seen it in a while myself, but I do remember before that alot of people used to complain about it.
Come to think of it, I remember a time when everyone in the system would randomly self destruct out of nowhere the same way. At first we didn't realize it happened to us all at once, because there was no system message. But that was a REALLY random bug.
Curious to know, did it happen Rogen's? That's where I was.
