Left-Click issue
« on: October 18, 2013, 08:13:49 PM »

Sometimes, after playing for a bit, left-click seems to get "jammed", as if it's always running.  Only happens in the Refit screen, and only happens when equipping new gear.  Seems like it gets stuck in shift-click mode, and it won't get un-stuck until I go to another page and return to Refit. 

It wasn't doing this before, so I'm guessing something changed there.

Tracked this one down.

If you hold left-Shift to speed up time, then hold right-Shift to keep it sped up (I get really, really, really tired of holding that key down- a toggle state or better yet a time-scalar using +/- would be reaaaaaally nice), Shift gets locked on.  Hitting left-Shift then right-Shift resolves it.  May be specific to Windows.

Anyhow, this is unlikely to happen to most people :)

Huh, weird. Thanks for the report!

Turns out this is an LWJGL bug; reported it to them.

(Just to clarify, this isn't the LMB getting stuck, right? It's just the shift key state? That's the only thing I'm able to reproduce.)

I guess the good news is if you press both shift keys down at the same time, it'll get stuck thinking shift is down until you press right-shift again. Temporary feature?

:)  I'll have to test to see whether it'll get stuck when I'm trying to speed up time.
