Apparently the chat window is opened by pressing button 41. Where is that on my keyboard?

I can change it to the tilda key, but then need to press ESC to close it?

Please patch the game to either integrate chat without the window like countless other multiplayer games do and launches with either "Y" or "T" keys depending on everyone/team chat

Plus if you are going to keep the chat window, ensure it can be opened and closed with the same key, and is openable even when the game is waiting for somebodys connection.

I hate the way the whole game freezes when passing on a turn. I can't even check my weapons! or look around the map.

as for your button 41? that's probably some sort of error, I would imagine.

I've reported this during the beta, so T17 are already aware of this.

I too am quite annoyed by this, since you can map all keys to open the chat bar, but can't close it, because it prints the respective key's character into the box.

The only key that currently does work, properly opening and closing the chat bar, is the TAB key.
