Anyway to disable "e" button?
After ending my turn by accident twice in the last 4 turns, I was wondering if there was any way to either:
1. Disable the 'e' key, since I can at least hide the right-hand menu from accidental hits
OR
2. Add a "are you sure?" prompt to the end turn command

Re: Anyway to disable "e" button?
unfortunately, that prevents most of the other useful keyboard shortcuts from working (e.g. 'r' recruit, 't' army, even the map filters '1', '2', etc.).

Re: Anyway to disable "e" button?
How are you accidentally htting 'e' anyway? My fingers never go near it except maybe when I have orders set to '3' and,.. well,.. I can hit numbers without hitting letters?

Precision = 1?
Seriously, I'm just clumsy. I've hit it reaching for "3" and "r".

Re: Anyway to disable "e" button?
I would love it if the "e" was changed to "ctrl+shift+e" or something. Dunno how many times I've hit "e" when trying hit "r", but it hurts each time

Re: Anyway to disable "e" button?
Yeah I've done that a bunch too. "r"ecruit, "R"esearch, and province "d"efense are right nearby, and I use those very frequently. Fortunately I only do PBEM games for the most part, so it isn't a big issue.
It would be nice if we could change the hotkey, disable it, or even if it was something more difficult to accidentally hit.

Re: Anyway to disable "e" button?
I bet you can get some program which intercepts key presses or something. Some techie must know how to do it!

It doesn't stop the map filters for me. And I can get all the lowercase hotkeys by just holding shift.

Re: Anyway to disable "e" button?
If that's true, you can probably hit "Shift-e" too, then.
