R Is for Railroad in Patch 1.17?

[kring]

Has anybody tried R (instead of Shift R) for Railroad? I accidentally hit R instead of Shift R, and the Worker started Working. I tried it with every Worker that was already on a Roaded square. The Button still shows Shift R.

Is this a fluke, or did I stumble onto something here?

I am using Patch 1.17f so I don't know if that matters or not.

I never tried that, but I'll check it. I really don't understand why they changed it to Shift-R, anyway.

You can use Shift-R or just R for railroads with 1.17f. A good change that I didn't see documented in the readme.

So it is a feature of 1.17f only. I found out that R-key can build railroad several days ago, and thought how dumb I was to press Shift-R all the time for last several months. Now I'm so released.
