Alt+r does not work.

Hello everybody.
Alt+r does nothing in Osmos for Windows, even if the game says "press Alt+R to restart level".
Alt+z works perfect.
As far as I remeber alt+r was working in an earlier version of Osmos.
Is this a known bug?

Hey, I just found the answer myself! I play the german version of the game and you have to press alt+n here alhough the game says "drücke alt+r zum neustarten".
Sorry for not finding that out earlier. It's still a bug and it should be corrected IMHO.

Thanks for this great game...

Hey, it's me again.
Just found out how to edit "Osmos-de.loc" in "programs/osmos/".
I could replace the "R" with an "N", simply with notepad, to correct the german localisation.

I still don't know why anybody would want to have different keypresses for the german version.
Just out of interest, Is there a reason?

Thanks....

Hi Biobern,

The hotkeys are different in each language in order to make sense in each language. e.g. The hotkey for toggling fullscreen is 'F' in English because the word Fullscreen begins with an F. This is not the case in other languages, so the hotkeys are unqiue in each language to make them guessable/intuitive ;-)

Cheers!
