Reply to traktor mapping- multiple commands to 1 key not working

hey guys,
i have traktor 1.2 and i'm trying to do something (seemingly) simple with command mapping but its not working. i've tried to search but had no luck

what i'm trying to do is map the same command twice or more to the same key but i only comes out once.

problem: i map 'cue/loop move' -> 'forward' to the keyboard key '3', and duplicate it twice so i have 3 instances, all mapped to the key '3' - the idea here is that i press the 3 key and it moves 3 beats forward. however, it only does 1 repetition of the command even though its there 3 times for the same key. if i click the > arrow 3 times with my mouse it works exactly as expected, moving forward 3 times, so it doesnt make sense why mapping the forward command 3 times wouldnt do the same thing.

trying to do it in two 'forward' commands, by also mapping a cue/loop size adjustment in between the two keys results in only the last 'cue/loop move' command being performed.

it seems as though, if its a deliberate feature, it ignores all duplicates for the same function except the last one in the mapping list.

i can get it to jump 3 beats by mixing beatjump and cue/loop move commands, ie beatjump +2 then cue/loop move -> forward - and this works fine for a normally playing song but not with a loop... and the whole reason im doing this is to move an active loop so thats no use to me.

can someone please respond whether i'm just missing something simple to get such functionality to work or confirm that this is just a limitation of traktor's mapping system?

cheers
