Summary0002723: Game keeps key presses if active window is switched away from the game. (when alt-tabbing for example)
DescriptionAlt-tabbing out of the game, or shift-tabbing to access the Steam community (obviously I'm on the Steam version) makes that key "stick" upon returning to the game until it is pressed again.

For example, I alt tab to check some advice on the forums, and I come back wondering why my clicks are acting so weird. Turns out the alt key is "stuck". Helpfully, the game does inform you what key you are pressing down next to the cursor, and a simple press of the stuck button fixes the issue, but it's mildy annoying, speaking as someone who alt-tabs quite bit.

Sorry...is there a search system on this system? I looked for one before posting, but I couldn't find one.

Yep, sure is. Just hit View Issues, and then there's a textbox you can search with. If you're not seeing closed issues, you may want to adjust the filter to include those also.

Thanks for that, I'll be sure to use it! I hate seeing reposts on other sites myself, hate to be "that guy" here :P

No worries, it happens to the best of us. I've been "that guy" plenty of times myself, too.
