Strafe sticking?

Post by GD » Tue Mar 16, 2004 2:45 am

When I hit Ctrl and an arrow key, it'll keep moving in the same direction after i let go of the keys.

This only started after getting the 20040315c version, and I haven't even touched any of the new commands yet.
Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one, but most of them stink.

I have noticed the same behavior. It seems identical to moving in a direction (strafing, running in circles, etc) and hitting enter, which locks your current turn and forward/backward movement values in and is a valid behavior of the umodified client. (I once AFK'd for lunch spinning in place on the Tranquility stone this way :lol: )
