Chat bug

Didn't see it in the "known bugs" but it's a very commonly known about bug. The chat bug.

Basicly this is what happens. Team leader sends tells, invite people and moves around using wsad keys. I'm not sure in what order it has to be done but sometimes the wsad will leak as text in the tells or general team text.

Known bug. A few days ago there was a thread about it and Castle (IIRC) mentioned that they couldn't RELIABLY reproduce it at the time, and someone mentioned a way, and Castle forwarded it to their dev team and they think they have a fix for at least part of it (at the time, it hadn't gone through QA and other stuff, though). Not sure if there's been any more about it since then from them.


It wasn't just the wsad keys, it was basically all the key bindings (I'd generally get 111122211221123313212312122311133 and other similar things, with zero letters).

Latest response from Castle is it looks like they squashed it:

Death of the buffer bug:

FYI, thanks to feedback from you guys (and one player who included the KEY piece of information, in particular) this particular bug looks like it has been squashed.

Of course, I say "looks like" because:
1) It hasn't passed QA yet -- it hasn't even been submitted!
2) There may be other things causing the same symptom.
3) We could simply be wrong and the fix doesn't do what we thought.

Anyway, fingers are crossed! Here's hoping this is the last of the wwwwssssdddddd1231231234123chat bug.

I have done a bit testing on the test server, and there I couldn't reproduce the bug.
