Leonardo expansion controls problem
Hi

While playing the unlockable expansion (in Uplay) I encountered a strange problem that renders me unable to continue playing the mission.
While putting together the map from the pieces, you have to rotate the pieces by using home/end buttons, however I can't get them to work for the life of me. I am playing on a laptop which has these keys mapped on the numpad, but even when I try turning num lock on or off, the home and end keys do not work in game. I tested the keys in a text editing program and there they work fine. But not in the game.
I also took a look at the default bindings file in the game folder and next to home and end there are numbers. I figured the numbers might give an ID of the key used. I figured I might try and change the number to a usable key but I couldn't find a list of keyboard key IDs. But this is all just speculation...
If you have any ideas on how to help me out I'd gladly try them.

Nevermind i found a solution:
You can use fn+the left or right arrow to simulate it. I just tried on my laptop and it works. Nevertheless, thank you for your rapid support, and for this beautiful game.
(the fn key should be at the bottom left of the keyboard)
Sorry for the english, its not my first language.

For anyone wondering how to deal with the rotation if "Fn+ arrows" didn't work, here is almost 11 years old post from Ubishіt forum:
1.You have to choose the tile you wish to rotate.
2.Put it on the left bottom
3.Pick a random tile and as you see on the image move it to "End Rotate" and click. The tile you first pick should rotate

If this method (fn+ arrow keys) doesn’t help someone:

What worked for me: fn + home or end keys when a piece is selected.
