Losing Control of Movement

[Kingofrunes]

Anyone ever had this happen to you where your character starts running off in a random direction regardless of where you click?

This has been happening to me rather frequently as of late. Seems that going to options solves the issue. Had it happen to me when fighting Master Bandits. Not cool as it made grabbing the ruthless badges a lot harder.

Anyone else experience a similar issue?

I remeber whne you click into the "Void" or near the sidewalk in dunny your char runs in the other derection. o.o

[Kendoza]

I experienced the same thing as Tropa does in Dun when you try to exit either at the north gate or west gate.

Its always irritating.

This occurs when going inbetween windows in window mode, that during a lag spike it will last register your click as a click and hold, so you character moves around where you point, even if you dont click down. This is cured the same way with the window movement.

A more annoying and perhaps non cureable glitch is when you target a monster/npc to attack or talk to and switch into another window. It you lag spike during this you can find yourself stuck on that monster or npc. To cure you must kill and wait for the monster to vanish, or go out of range(which is very far if in iria or Tail or tara. If its a npc, you simply must go far away till they are out of range, again very far if in iria. I do this with rafting occasionally and have to fly away as map movement and arrow keys will only work since any click will register as you target talking to the npc.. And of coarse, you can always CC or log or go to homestead.

Change your camera view and click on the land outside of the gate.
I've seen so many people get stuck at the gate and laughed really hard.

Just lower your POV and click outside

Aside from the not-so-mysterious gates of Dunby movement thing, the only movement problem I've had is when I have a nice lag spike and my characters starts to follow my cursor like a dog/cat following a red dot from a pointer light.

I hate that one specifically, it loves happening to me whilst fighting archers.

Oh I know what it is and how to fix it. It just happens from time to time.

Still annoying :<

[Slayerj]

It happends to me if i click or i'm in the middle of clicking JUST as a SMALL lagspike or what not jumps up in my face. The game just goes "Yo, you totaly forgot to stop pressing that mouse key...let's run this way! ...Oh your trying to hit enter and talk? *auto turns off chat thingy* Nope.avi, *opens every window trying to type*" RAAAAGE. XD Though I've never have had what's happening to you. ._. The onlything that even come close is dunbarton being a bitch and trying to make me stay due to that damn gate. >.>

That's not a glitch.
The game only acknowledges that you pressed the Caps lock button if you pressed it while you had a text cursor blinking somewhere (whether it be PM or in the chat log). This means that if you pressed Caps Lock before you pressed enter to open up the message bar, your game doesn't recognize it, so although your caps lock is on, the game still thinks it's off.
In other words, Caps lock doesn't toggle unless you press it while a chat window or text cursor is active. To fix this confusing, simply press caps lock again while there is no text input active.

thats my favourite glitch wish was just a toggle able option when going long distances like fish mark to filia or 1st room to boss room where i died

[Paradise]

i hated that glitch where you can't write untill you copy-paste something from outside the game,
inside the game chat, then people ask why you don't talk in the meanwhile D=

I hate this. I lag ALLLLLL the time, so this happens to me quite often, especially in Dunbarton. It's so annoying.

[Elleanior]

I've had that before. It was caused (for me) because of having one thing in the options turned on. I think it was auto-somthing. (What you use to automatically recast ranged attack.)

I grew a habbit of clicking behind my character when I'm using any sort of melee ability because of that.

Following the mouse cursor (without clicking) is annoying. Just click somewhere and that should be fixed.

Not the same issue I'm having. I clicked somewhere and it ignored it. I click on an item and I'd head towards it only to get interrupted by a mob and me trying to struggle with the camera to see what the heck I was doing. I'd panic and click away and away I'd go away from the item I was trying to grab in the first place.

You can always just hold down your mouse o-o

I've had this happen to me quite a few times, it hasn't happened to me lately though, but I haven't been playing nearly as much as I used to. The game has gotten nearly intolerable with all the glitches/lag/random dc.

I remember being stuck on a wall in GOP being aggro'd by several enemies as well as a blinker not being able to move or load any skills. Needless to say I died, but yea..it's really annoying. As for the whole window thing that was talked about in previous posts - that hasn't been the case for me, it's never happened to me while I was in windowed mode or just switched. So it must be another issue that's also causing this to happen.

I hope they find a resolution to this problem eventually, but then again the shadow wizard glitch has been around since g11 came out and it seems to have been completely ignored.

[SUNFLARE]

No but ive had a Issue when clicking my mouse to fast on map get the angle to go out of whack kinda hard to explain but its really annoying

You mean with the text blinker flashes and you end up typing like

a
i
ca
nt
ty
p
e
br
b
/logoff

That's an easy fix. If you play in windowed mode, it means that you turned caps lock on while in mabi's window and cc'd or something (at least, this is true from my observations). To fix it, minimize mabi, press caps lock, maximize mabi. It should be fixed.
