[2.0.8] movement stops while key is still pressed
[2.0.8] movement stops while key is still pressed
a movement key sometimes stops getting recognized until I let go of it. while that key is kept pressed and is blocked, I can still move in all other directions. it's like walking against a wall.
I don't need to press other keys to get this bug, just walking straight on and at some point the movement gets blocked. I once managed to block two directions at the same time by going diagonally and spamming a few other keys. more key presses = higher chance of this occurring, it seems.
I recorded this locking up in the following video. And on my first attempt I noticed a little hitch while turning that also sometimes appears, but more rare (at 3 second mark). I have a key press overlay in the bottom left.

Thank you for the feedback. I have been unable to reproduce the described behaviour, could you please provide a save file?
Also was that a single player game?

hi,
my partner is having this same issue. we're both using linux versions and play multiplayer with space age DLC. I am the one who hosts the server and I do NOT have the issue, whilst she does. we started a fresh save and are literally 20 minutes into playing

I can start a completely fresh single player game and run around, after 20 sec or so the movement just stops.I'll try to completely reinstall Factorio.
update: deleted everything beside my old mods that are all inactive, and it's still there after the reinstall.

Re: [2.0.8] movement stops while key is still pressed
I can't reproduce any issues when I try. Do you by chance have any other keyboard you could test with?

Re: [2.0.8] movement stops while key is still pressed
I have an idea what could cause this. when I activate another window (defocus Factorio) and then go back in to the game, basically the same happens. Maybe some other application tries to get focus for some reason and Factorio focus it for a tiny moment?
whatever the reason may have been, it's been a few weeks I was forced to play on a different PC where I didn't have this problem. now that I'm back at the main PC, the issue is gone. it's been a few Factorio versions and a sizable windows update in between, so I don't know what fixed it.
[Solved?]

Re: [2.0.8] movement stops while key is still pressed
This is actually a hardware/software issue, where the system doesn't tell the application (in this case factorio) that a key has been released, (for example, W or A) or the system doesn't know. (because of the same issue in a hardware->software communication scenario)
Well, at least in my experience (usually with other applications)

the issue is still there in the latest version, but it happened kinda rarely so we're able to play without much issueTiavor wrote: ↑Fri Nov 15, 2024 11:32 pmdo you still have the problem with the newest version? for me it's gone for some reason.steveyh25 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2024 3:58 pm hi,

one thing I have noticed is that MY game will sometimes "freeze" for 0.25 seconds, and this was also causing a similar hiccup on anyone connected to my game. it's kinda rare, however. the game plays perfect at 60fps otherwise - it's almost like one frame of the game will randomly take a long time to generate

What version number?
