Yes, the alt tab key being stuck is a known issue and that's why we show which keys have been held down for a long time. It's an engine issue, and not something we can fix. As far as it scrolling down slightly, that's not something I've heard of before, but it's also not the sort of thing that's within the ability of game-level code to fix for something like this. :/
Search the closed issues here for more info on alt-tabbing if you want. |

I was about to come post this. Pre 4.063 it did not do this, but since then it is consistent every time I tab out while in a planet-level view, when I come back the view has gone diagonally down and to the right. It seems to go further the longer I am tabbed out. Did something change between the previous version and this one that makes the mouse detect as moving to the bottom right corner whenever you alt-tab?
Edit: Oops now I see this is closed. Uh, what's the etiquette for something like this? I'm pretty sure something changed, but I don't want to be annoying and resubmit something that's already been closed as non-fixable. Surely something had to break it in the first place...?

That part is new, then -- the game does keep track of your mouse movements when the game doesn't have focus. That's unfortunately an apparent result of our having fixed a bug with windowed mode being very broken (and edge scrolling not working quite right in general). Not something we can fix without breaking something else worse, though. :/ |

Hey X, would it be possible to disable view scrolling when the ALT key is "held" down? |
|
|
Bad idea. The alt key does modify selection behavior, so scrolling while holding down alt has use. |
|
|
Hmm. It was a thought though. :\ |
|
|
It would a great solution if the alt key wasn't mapped to anything important by default. Good thinking though. |

Does the tab part of alt + tab get passed to the game before switching windows? You could add a bind to always go to the galaxy map when alt + tab is pressed, or at least an option for those of us who tab out a lot (to put in too many bug and suggestion reports no doubt) so that when we come back our view won't be halfway to Alpha Centauri. |

Unfortunately not. When the tab part is hit, it's a windows interrupt and all the game knows is that alt is held down. We looked into this really thoroughly, believe me. Not that there might not be something we didn't think of, but we definitely put a lot of effort into this and this was the best we could find. |

By the way -- to quickly center on your stuff when you get back into a game, just tap the H key. That at least makes this a pretty minor issue if you know that hotkey, though it's still annoying and something we hope can be fixed in a future version of Unity. |
