A bug I noticed - the backspace in the file creation menu does not work! Bad news for indecisive old me.
Ah! That is a bug and I see exactly what went wrong! I will have it fixed in the next update! Thank you for bringing it to my attention!
The bug has been fixed! Thank you for bringing it to my attention -- it was actually also causing issues with using some letters in file name so overall a very helpful bug to have found!
It would be good for ESC to cancel or deselect the current item! And takes about a second to place things - Firefox 140.0.4
This is me trying a bunch of the items :D! Skogstomte screenshot
I was seeing the same speeds in Firefox, but much faster performance in Chrome. I will investigate what the difference is!
I will also add in the escape to deselect, great idea!
I added in the ESC key for deselecting a placing object! Thank you for the suggestion!
Right now, the TAB key is doing both GUI focus and color change. You can use the `_input()` callback function to handle input events before they reach the GUI, and use `get_viewport().set_input_as_handled()` to stop the event from propagating further, so it never reaches the GUI.
(More about input propagation order here )
Thank you! I will aim to fix that for the next build update!
The TAB key issue has been fixed! Thank you for pointing it out and suggesting a fix! :)
