Remapping Movement Keys & Menu Keys Causes Main Menu to open randomly while moving

[Mark Otto]

I’ve been remapping the keys since 2015 to i,j,k,l + Shift keys for diagonals. Since the last update, when moving around on the over world with this setup, the main game menu will pop up. It isn’t consistent, meaning I can’t press the same key combination twice to produce the same behaviour, but happens often enough to render the game for this version unplayable.

Idk whats going wrong, but if I had to guess its something to do with the way tokens are being consumed and interpreted by the new input manager you’ve programmed.

I’d highly recommend attempting to remap the keys in-game to a Nethack-esque setup, because the in-game experience is super jank. Whats the point to have remappable keys if remapping the keys breaks the game? It was working 5 years ago just fine. But I get that the new input manager is necessary to get controller support and etc. just please fix it for keyboard.
