Num Lock disable?

[HeroHolger]

Hi
after i pressed the wrong key "Num " twice instead Delete while i was walking to right side , w:a minimize and right key were stucked.

I wasnt able to do something else but run to right side which was the last thing i have done during i pressed "num" twice. different keys were accepted but right after all never liftz up ill i killed myself.

i think, this must be a Windows7 Problem because i am realy sure, that Win7 catches the double Num-Key but i have no clue how to disable it and dr. google gives no answer.

issue at 4:46min

or is it a bug?
i wasnt able to open the chat in this time till i used the SG.

but i was able to select weappons via F-Keys.

immediately after i used SG everything worked fine so that i doint think that the key was blocked in my keyboard.

i was able to minimize the game during my oponent turn, and under win7 looked everything fine. but after maximize i runed again to right.

strange




best regards

i can reproduce this problem. look at it..its really funny.

at 19:08s i pressed Num key twice and game minimized possible via a key-catch from windows.

later during the game i stoped the game via mouse and minimize-button after ESC. I was able to write documents under windows...every key worked fine. no right - key.problem. after i am back in game everything is funny.

just after i shoot the bazooka (even aiming wasnt able but "space" worked) i could do something else in my next turn.



When its reproducible then i think it is maybe a bug in the software.


Maybe there is no fix but maybe a workaround.

i am curios about the solution.

after more tests i am sure, that icq catches the 2x Num-Key.

workarround is to play worms without icq in the background but even if icq catch the event worms shouldnt block the current key.

Is the numkey a 6? it's an alias for Right arrow.
this is how it has always been in WA: hold a key, don't release it and minimize. Then release it and maximize, the key will still be held forever until you press it once. This only affects WA in which the minimization was done, keystate was not updated

hi steps

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Num_lock

i mean the key over the 7 in this example.


but ur solution would have been never be in my mind cos if i wanna stop walking right, i wouldnt press right ^^ but it works.

ah so you were already walking to the right side. well it could also be an arrow alias in other case as well
pressing the key once updates its state and prevents it from still being held virtually

[HeroHolger]

yeah

but in all ways its a bug and it cannot be so hard to disable all key states after minimizing/maximazing .
