keyboard function help needed please

So while I was working on a build I noticed that I can no longer use the Z key to rotate selected items EG wall piece in the grid or any other keyboard key function for that matter. Not sure if I turned a keyboard feature off Anybody that could help out thanks.

Do you still experience this problem?

I do yes, it happened again tonight, All was working fine at first and then out of the blue I could no longer use the Z or X keys or Shift functions

Hmm, there could be couple of causes of this issue. The first one is probably not the one, but make sure that your keyboard is plugged in (sounds stupid, I know, but I've worked at tech support and the amount of times the problem was just that the cables weren't plugged in correctly is ridiculous.)

The second thing that comes to mind is that your drivers might need an update. If you use a keyboard from certain brands then check their websites if they have any updates for the drivers.

Check if windows is up-to-date as well.

If none of these thing work, try hooking up a different keyboard and see if that solves the problem.

In Planet Coaster, go to options ->controls and check if the shortcuts are listed correctly.

If everything looks good there, then I'd do a complete re-install of the game. And if that doesn't work either, contact Frontier.

I don't know if it can help you but once I had a similar problem. I discovered that if you press the shift key for more than 8 seconds, you activate the accessibility features of windows 10 which blocks keys or changes them. Sorry if I can't be more precise and for my English (I use the translator). Check the accessibility features of windows 10, I hope to be useful.
