### Summary

I enjoy playing Fortnite Lego with touch and keyboard. It was working just fine in the past. However now, it seems like only the movement keys are “blocked” or intentionally turned off, as all other controls are working just fine to navigate and interact with the objects, like maps, inventory and items picker.
