Control mapping does not respect keyboard layout

Issue #10332 open
Rebecca McKeown created an issue

The issue started with the 7th Plague beta with the big input manager changes. In the key remapping menu, the game treats your inputs as if you are using a QWERTY keyboard regardless of your actual layout. However, the prompts in the actual game will reflect the keyboard layout in use, which is very confusing if your keyboard layout does not correspond closely to US-QWERTY. It also required me to remap all of my keybinds from before the 7th Plague update, since the existing keybinds for my keyboard layout were retained and therefore were all in the wrong places. Additionally, the game no longer recognises keys present only on ISO layout keyboards such as the backslash/vertical pipe key next to left shift, and presumably other keys exclusive to keyboards other than US-QWERTY.
