Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/PlayCover/PlayCover/issues/1173

In Honkai: Star Rail, right when I was to enter a character name, keyboard keys that are mapped cannot be used to type, and only the ones that doesn't get mapped can be used. I had to delete all of the keymapping to proceed, then re-import it. This probably affects all in-game textfields but I have not experimented with them yet. I will update it when I do.

Describe the solution you'd like

Just a toggle somewhere (preferrably in the menubar) to temporarily disable all keymapping.

Anything else?

None as I have forgotten to record it. I will update with further information soon.

Issue Language

Yes my issue is written in English

This is a bug with macOS Sonoma and smart keymapping. Use PlayCover Nightly. After that, right click honkai star rail -> settings -> disable smart keymapping & misc -> change application type to public.app-category.games.
