Technical Issues with update
I have been having major movement problems.
In one case i was constantly forced to move south.
In another, i was about to enter the workshop, and right before i stepped in, everyone else moved the opposite direction, then i was stuck in place. This has happened to me twice (both right before entering buidlings)

i have had similar problem but i can already use it to my advantage. for me i keep moving in one direction when i am moving that way, then click on another window, let go of key, click back to illarion you will still be going in whatever direction it is. could use this to type and walk i think. to stop just hit the "downed" key
edit: tried this with shift, same thing

Yes I got the problem too, it seems if you look at them, turn your char in their direction or stay near them you get the elf/gnom..whatever quicker.Salathe wrote: Also... i often see people as "someone" but they later turn into "Man/Woman/Elf/Elfess etc..." is this a bug?
I got an another problem thougth my mouse moves extremly slow inside the client, using it is harder and even pulling Items around is hard.

As nothing was changed in the client's handling of keys, the arrow key problems could be related to the new version of the graphics library which also handles the input.
I have never observed this. Please give some more information that might help to pinpoint the problem. E.g. is it related to certain machines?

Well, about the arrow keys;
If you hold an arrow key (lets say, up arrow key) your character will walk north right? Now if you keep holding the arrow key and alt + tab to another window, the client thinks you're still pressing the key, so your character will keep walking northwards even though you're on another window. Now when you come back to Illarion and make it your active window, the client notices that you're not hitting the up arrow anymore and makes your character stop (unless you press another arrow key, obviously.) This is actually a "useful" bug for some. (with slow computers =p)
Since the update though, you can still do that, but when you come back to the Illarion window and make it your active window, your character will still go northward, it won't stop and the client won't notice that you're not hitting the key anymore. This can be a bit annoying, but all you have to do is press the up arrow once more then your character will stop. Or whichever other arrow your character is going in the direction of.

is there any reason i shoulndt be able to make an axe... i never get past 80% i waisted 12 cotters and never got a fail message.. another person tried and has same problem even with different axe seems tied to the same bug that stops you after you start a work..just an observation..

sorry guys another crafting problem as arisen.. cant make poisen arrows it say im missing time "bottle" i tried every empty bottle and yellow bottle i had mark is having the same problem..
another odd thing happens when i make saws.. but there is a lil work around for it..
if you handle is the in the first belt spot you fail every time when making saw.. always try to put handles and other items below first spot leaving the first belt spot empty..
