In what game mode did the bug occur? Everywhere
Summarize your bug In a certain popular Windows setup, SHIFT+SPACE is a key to switch between Korean and English input method. (See kbd101c at http://archives.miloush.net/michkap/archive/2012/04/30/10298801.html) When I sprint and jump at the same time, SHIFT+SPACE combination is triggered, and then the input language becomes Korean. Once switched to Korean, I cannot control my character at all, until I press SHIFT+SPACE again to go back to English mode. To fix this issue, the game must make sure that keystrokes do not trigger input method changes.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Install Korean input method and make it the default input method of your operating system. 2. Switch Korean input method's hardware keyboard layout to 'Korean keyboard (101 key) Type 3', following the screenshots in this post: https://mooneegee.blogspot.com/2018/02/blog-post.html 3. Reboot and make sure you can switch to Korean input mode by pressing SPACE while holding LEFT SHIFT. 4. Launch the game and enter the state where you can control your character. 5. Press SPACE while holding LEFT SHIFT to switch to Korean input mode. 6. You cannot control your character anymore.
