I've bugged this in-game, so, this is just a heads-up for all:

The apostrophe key no longer works for keybinds. It is the default key bound to the quickchat menu, but that no longer works.

In the Keymapping Tab of the Options Window, it will show that Quck Chat is bound to "apostrophe". But, doesn't work. When one tries to use this window to bind the apostrophe key to Quick Chat or any other bind, the name of the key now appears as "INP_COLON".

Trying to bind anything to "INP_COLON" or to "apostrophe" in the the command line with the /bind command has no effect.

/showbind apostrophe will show you what you bound to "apostrophe", but doesn't work as a bind.

/showbind INP_COLON returns an error.


In the meantime you can pick any other key in the Keymapping Window to bind to quickchat and it will work.

Or you can use one of these binds:

/bind <key> "quickchat" [this will pop up the menu at the word balloon at the end of the command line]
/bind <key> "popmenu quickchat" [this will pop up the menu wherever your cursor is]

Strange, I customize my quickchat contents, and have made a habit of " ' + S + N + 1" when I login to open the netgraph, and it worked just a couple hours ago. Have you changed any of your binds recently? I've never tried changing a bind from the window so I don't know what that does.
