@zacc.drake That error readllly doesn't look like it comes from this mod (this doesn't use GameSettings), and an error with a mod using that could certainly could block the in-game changes for other keys. Let me know if it persists after you clean up your mod collection and I'll take a closer look - for now I can't reproduce that issue.

Hi @algernon, sorry it's taken a few days for me to get back to this.
Today I'm having a slightly different problem to what I described earlier.

The hotkey setting now changes properly on the settings page, but the setting does not update in-game until I restart the game.


My output log is full of this:
466,710ms | GameSettings: '' is not found or cannot be loaded. Make sure to call GameSettings.AddSettingsFile() to register a settings file before using SavedValue(). [Settings - Internal]
(Filename: C:/buildslave/unity/build/artifacts/generated/common/runtime/DebugBindings.gen.cpp Line: 51)


However I know that there was an update in the last few days, and I have done NOTHING about checking if all my mods are compatible, so the problem may lie elsewhere...

Updated to version 1.2.2:
- Update AlgernonCommons

@zacc.drake Thanks - no obvious candidtates there. Can you reproduce the issue (i.e. change the key) and post your output log from immediately afterwards?

@algernon I haven't played in a while, and my mods do need a good go-through. It seems that lots has changed in the mod world since I played last.

Compatibility report here: https://pastebin.com/yjNc79S1

Thanks

@zacc.drake This just uses the normal inbuilt game control for key setting. Most likely you've got a mod doing something strange; post your Compatibility Report output and I'll take a look.

There seems to be a problem with setting the hotkey. Seems like it's just not listening. The box changes to 'Press any key', then nothing happens. (Except SOMETIMES, but rarely, it does).

NO WAIT, I've figured it out!
1) Click once
2) Press desired hotkey
3) Click twice more
This works! but why...??

Maybe this has been suggested, but I would love to see the UUI icon change when the toggle is enabled (green) and disabled (red).

Thanks for that fix

Updated to Version 1.2.1:
- Fix mod not loading in editors

Updated to version 1.2 :
- Add option to automatically disable edge scrolling when the game loses focus
- Implement AlgernonCommons
- Update UUI

If I had to pick the number one mod for this game, it has to be this one. It makes using all the other mods less frustrating. I passed this one by many times and now I don't want to play without it. My apologies for being a late believer. However, it is weird when you forget you left the lock on and try to relocate.

@warrlock2001 Thanks for the reports - I'm keeping an eye out too, although so far I haven't seen your issue anywhere else.

@algernon So I unsubscribed Unified UUI and Toggle Edge hotkey worked. Had to resubscribe, as Network tools doesn't work well without. Seems to be retaining it's keybinds, although I haven't had a chance to test it out thoroughly yet. Will let you know if it quits working again.

Will also try the base game suggestion if that doesn't work.

Okay. I'm looking at my list of recent subscriptions and noticed that I subscribed to UUI on May 20th, about the time it stopped working. I'll start with disabling that and see what happens as I move through the list of recently subscribed mods. Mostly your's btw, and they're great.

BTW, don't assume that a mod isn't using a hotkey just because a key setting isn't visible ... that's why the baseline test is so important. If you're looking for a needle in a haystack, you need to first work out which haystack to look in!

@warrlock2001 It's the most useful test you can do at this point, as we need to establish a baseline; we need to verify that there's nothing outside of other mods causing the issue. All you need is a few minutes in a new game, you don't even have to do any actual city-building.

Ohh! I have a little over 100 mods and 5000 assets on a nicely working city of 250,000. (Other than traffic congestion and outside connection issues. Didn't really want to start a new city. It worked great a week ago, until some update. I don't have any other hotkeys using the same sequence, and even changing the combination works a couple of times, then won't respond other than the button toggle. I can try a new load without mods when I get back to the game, but that won't be very useful to track the issue, even if it works properly.

@warrlock2001 You can't "dissasociate with UUI", I was talking about a different mod also trying to claim the same key. Does the problem happen with all other mods disabled (just on a blank test city)?

@algernon had a look at UUI documentation on the Wiki to see if there was a way to disassociate Toggle edge from UUI, but there was nothing in the Wiki. It does mention that it disables the hotkey of mods added in order eliminate conflicts, but also has documentation on how authors can enable keybinds. It's beyond my skill set.

@algernon As far as I can tell no other hotkey is assigned. Problem also occurred when after re-assignment. I am leaving for work right away, but will try to see what happens if I disassociate with UII, if I can.

@warrlock2001 I wonder if that's a UUI hotkey conflict. Is there any other mod set to the same hotkey? Does the problem happen with all other mods disabled (just on a blank test city)?

@algernon problem with binding again. Won't retain the hot key and have to resort to button toggle. Works intermittently when it wants, but mostly not.

Great I have it working now. Have to remember to actually change screen focus by clicking the game window when returning from Google mapping or whatever else I'm referencing

Version 1.1.3:
- Fix Hotkey selection not displaying in options panel

@warrlock2001 ...huh, you're right - sorry about that! Okay, while I'm sorting that out, delete the file 'ToggleEdgeScrolling.xml' in your local settings directory to clear all settings (in Windows, %LocalAppData\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylnes').

@algernon How do I change the hotkey setting. There is no option in the settings that I can see. I'm still rather new to all the tweaking of everything.

@warrlock2001 I meant by resetting the hotkey setting, by changing it to something else and then changing it back. For a panel resizing mod, I recommend Yet Another Toolbar instead, as Resize It has some issues with some of my (and other) mods.

@algeron by resetting, I suspect you mean re-subscribing? I will give that a try, but seems to have stopped after I subscribed to resize it. It still works with the button toggle in UUI, but not the keyboard short cut. Will try reset. Thanks for responding.

@warrlock2001 Have you tried resetting it?

I think this is a fantastic mod, but for some reason The hot key stopped working and it was programmed quite nicely to my Logitech G110 keyboard

Version 1.1.2:
- Convert to UUI hotkey detection and update bundled UUI
- Automatically refresh options panel on language change

Thank you for this. I was googling and came across the reddit thread when you made this. This is exactly that I need!

@ StayHungryStayFoolish As it happens, there's a new camera mod in development - that's a good idea, and I'll see which mod it best fits into!

I love the Camera Additions mod's right-click scrolling and I am sorry if someone did not get used to it and does dezoning or doing road upgrades. I can tell dozen of mods, which can cause issues if you do not know how to use it. Its hotkeys can be changed, but I do not switch off right-click scrolling. I just need smooth right-click scrolling on the screen, but Camera Additions seems to have issues.

Since Toggle Edge Scrolling is the only "fresh" mod, which is dealing with scrolling, please add smooth right-click scrolling to his mod (with a hotkey or by setup).

@algernon, awesome mod for such an annoyance of mine! Thank you for your awesome work!

StayHungryStayFoolish I think it's amazing how EVERY mod has a comment from you! And always complaining!

If you would allow me to recommend something: a short tutorial video would be appreciated to avoid long written explanation.

@Sinistereye5901 Because then to turn it back on you need to go into the vanilla game settings again. This avoids the need to go into the settings menu each and every time you want to change the setting.

If that isn't an issue for you, then you probably don't have any need for this mod. If you're like me, and have multiple monitors and need to go back-and-forth between the game and other apps (e.g. modding development, reference materials, recording a video, broadcasting a livestream, discussion on Discord, whatever), you don't want the game to keep scrolling just because the mouse cursor is 'over there somewhere'. Conversely, you do want to turn on scrolling easily when in-game, because it's quite useful.

This mod makes toggling the mode as simple as a single keystroke. It's a simple but powerful quality-of-life tool for those of us who need it.

why not just turn off edge scrolling in the vanilla game settings?

Version 1.1.1:
- Move settings file location from application directory to user directory

@Clunk I have just included Camera Additions (Rightclick scroll & save camera positions) is a great mod, it took me half an hour to fall into a habit. Your mouse will not scroll the screen unless you push right-click!!! If you would switch off scrolling (i.e. when you do zoning or forest brush, just use Ctrl+Shift+O). You can find this mod and more on my list.

I look forward to giving this a go. I asked (begged) for something like this back in May 2020. Funny thing is I've got so used now to NOT using edge-scrolling that I wonder how it will feel to go back. My old request is here, I called it Mouse Park - https://sp.zhabite.com/app/255710/discussions/1/2152098843855812572/

Very much appreciated!

Thank you!! didnt realize i needed this in my life until now lol

Version 1.1 update:
Add option to automatically turn off edge scrolling on game load

This is great ! Thanks a lot !

Holy hell about time ty

Just perfect ! I was looking for it since 2017 when i bought game xD
