Steam Screenshot issue

Post by glitch13 »

Whenever I win I like to take a screenshot of the flagship breaking apart and another one of the "summary" screen (where it shows the ship's name in large type along with the surviving crew, then eventually starts scrolling the credits) using Steam's built-in F12 screenshot feature.

It seems that since the patch friday, hitting F12 on the "summary" screen acts like hitting escape and exits the credits and brings up the end game dialog box with buttons for Stats, etc. It also takes a screenshot of that instead of the summary screen.

In no way a show stopper, but something I noticed. It's also hindering the excessive bragging on my Steam friends feed by flooding with it screenshots of my victories.

That's probably because the credits screen will close after any key press. And before the patch, since F12 wasn't used, it didn't count as a key press. That's definitely not something I considered, sorry about that :( It'll be added to a list of things for a future patch, but I don't have any time frame on that yet.
