.802 [Bug/Interface] Keyboard behavior seems to be getting weirder

My main concern is Num Pad for unit moves: 1,3,7, and 9 seem to work for diagonal movement only until I build or acquire a second unit. When I have more than my sov on the board, they either don't do anything or they 'randomly' act like a neighboring non-diagonal move key.

I'm beginning to suspect that the dual nature of the Num Pad keys is part of the problem. The 'normal' HOME and END keys are not working like they did in earlier builds. HOME seems to do nothing now and END doesn't always work.

p.s. I'm very happy to see the new Keyboard tab in Options. Here's hoping that it's just a start on how we can play the game with minimal mouse use.

I agree with minimal mouse use.

I also have had some weird unit movement issues; units sometimes move along their destination after end of turn, other times they don't.

Also about movement, without a path indicator it's hard to see how to get to an isolated area. Seeing a path that is chosen (similar to other games) might be necessary, because sometimes I've moved to terrain I've already explored but the visual details of the map aren't enough to clearly tell me if I can move over the next hill or if I have to go around it. The game seems to know but then they do the weird movement issue above and end up standing in place several turns till I notice it.
