| Summary | 0023674: Chat; Seems to hold buffer text | ||||
| Description | I'm not sure how to explain this; so I'll simply explain the steps to reproduce. Press Enter Press Escape Press letters on the keyboard. 'test' for example Press Enter - Message will be immediately sent. Press Escape Press Enter - Same pressed letters will be sent the moment chat opens. Press Escape Press Enter - Same pressed letters will be sent the moment chat opens. Press Enter again - Same pressed letters are sent. Press Escape Press Enter - Chat opens without sending any message, the double enter press seemingly having cleared it. | ||||

Badger also notes: "I sometimes find that hitting shift-x to suppress the "Do you really want to upgrade" popups means that when I enter chat, I see a bunch of Xs" |

A...minor note that was found, for the bit about sending odd messages (like "aw" and "11" and the Xs) when chat is opened. The little flashing vertical line in the chat box, that indicates it's active? If you press ESC while that's there to close the chat, everything you hit on the keyboard will get sent next time you open chat, like said before. If before pressing ESC, you click on the planet view to deselect chat and thus remove that line, you don't seem to get this issue. |

Thanks! * Made a number of changes to the in-game chat textbox to prevent it from capturing your input even after it was closed, thus leading to mysterious sends of extra keys as well as your keybindings in general not working while the capture was in place. * Also wound up re-plumbing the entire textbox input pipeline, because there were a number of cases of strange and annoying lag that could happen with them. So far all the ones we've tested are working great now and are more responsive. But please do let us know if there's any that are funky for you. |
