Henry carries on moving forward even though I am no longer pressing W (forward key)

Bugs
#1

I am playing on the PC with a decent PC and all drivers are up to date, etc.

If I press W to move forward and then stop pressing W Henry sometimes (quite often actually) carries on moving forward for a little while. This often results in me bumping into other characters or going in directions I don’t want to go in. It’s almost like W is actually spamming a keyboard buffer that has to drain down before it returns to normal.

I wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing this before I report it through the official channels?

double tap W and it will stop

#3

Thanks, I’ll give that a try :slight_smile:

#4

I only had that happen once, back in 1.2. It stopped on an exit and restart.

#5

I tried double tapping W a number of times but that didn’t resolve it and I am still seeing the issue.

I notice this mostly happens in the cities and near to the endge of the cities.

mhh weird it solved the issue for me, sorry it didn’t fix it for you.

#7

This bug is linked to the stutter/camera shaking bug. The latest patch didn’t really help (not for everyone at least). You can try activating v.sync in the game settings, this is usually enough to fix the glitch.

#8

Thanks Ordinat, useful info.

I’d tried setting v-sync to on before but that didn’t seem to work at the time. I’ve just set it to 60 and that had more of an effect although I won’t fully know if it’s resolved until I go back to one of the earlier towns where it was particularly bad. Will post again once I know for sure.

your w key going bad?
the left stick on my xbox 1 controller for my PC went bad and did the same thing. new controller no walkie.

#10

Good question but no, I play a lot of games and it’s fine in all of my other games.

#11

Yeah, I too set it to 60. In my case Henry keeps walking or running without actually moving (he would put Michael Jackson to shame…), setting v.sync ON did the trick so far, hope it works for you.
