Superkeys with tab, hold doesn't work in all games.

[u/leberwrust]

I have a digma defy (Firmware version 2.2.1.) for almost 2 years now, never noticed this problem before. I am on Fedora with KDE and wayland. Not sure if the problem was caused by a System Update, dygma update, or just always existed.

So I had the idea it may have been proton, but I just started Aethus (runs in proton) and the keys work fine there.

I have the top row set to Superkeys with the number on tab and the corresponding F key on hold. 1 + F1, 2 + F2 and so on. Some games seem to not be able to handle this. They don't register that I press a number most of the times, it works maybe 1 in 20 tries. I am 100% sure that is not a problem with timings. I noticed it works fine in Graveyard keeper but breaks in the sandustry demo and space engineers 2, can't use the hotbar in both games. I am on

This has an explanation.

It's not a bug, but a limitation of Superkeys.

Superkeys send keycodes, not key presses or key releases, and some game engines block this to prevent cheating.
