Some issues with WoW and IS
Im not sure if im the only one with this problem, but whenever i run IS along with World of Warcraft, i cannot use WASD to move more than around 4 paces, and the same happens with arrow keys. After i move my 4 paces the screen freezes until i release the key in question. At that point the game unlocks and i can move another 4 paces.
This does not happen if i use the mouse to move, nor does it happen with autorun.
I've tried this both with and without ISXWoW loaded so for some reason this happens in Inner Space itself.
Found it a bit odd so im reporting in Maybe it's been covered somewhere too, in which case i'll be looking like a fool for even bringing it up, but oh well i'll take my chances

Nope... spoke in haste. It worked nice for a little while after the reinstall, but now its fux0red again.
What i did after reinstall:
Created a script like this
Nothing fancy... Then i bound it to my F12 key like this
And about 10 minutes after i did that, its locking up again..
What i did after reinstall:
Created a script like this
Code: Select all
function main()
{
wowpress TARGETNEARESTENEMY
face ${Target.X} ${Target.Y}
}
Code: Select all
bind Target F12 runscript target.iss
Ok so i found what caused it.. wish i could edit above posts
Anyways. Holding down the combination A and W (or W and D, S and D, S and A) at the same time as holding down the right mousebutton, and then running like this sorta sideways / forward while looking in another direction than the one you run in, causes IS to lag out and lock up the movement keys, at least on my PC
Done posting now, carry on.. hehe

Odd.
I play WoW with IS, and have not experienced anything like this. I move with keyboard+mouse all day long while playing (yes including holding right mouse for mouselook, moving forward and strafing at the same time ). I really have no idea what would cause it to freeze, but I'll see what I can drum up.
Also, for such a simple target hotkey, you can skip making the script and just do this:
noparse stops the ${} from being parsed immediately so they get parsed when you press the hotkey. " around the actual command makes sure that it is processed as a single parameter, rather than being split potentially into multiple commands, or expanding/pipelining/etc. The ; is a command splitter. Thus, when F12 is pressed it will execute the two lines exactly as you have them in the script
And finally.. post editing is disabled because I don't read old posts unless I have reason to, and people expect their message to be read. If I read the post before the edit, I might not ever know it was edited... so ... disabled

Changing keyboard / mouse input from Win32I to DirectInput8 solves the lag, but after doing so im also unable to open the console which I suppose is because Inner Space loses control of the input, since it is actually win32i but Inner Space tries to find DirectInput8 keystrokes when it is in that modus, and thus is unable to interpret the "Open console" command.
Not sure if this is only my PC thats acting up, but the lockups is due to WoW.exe stealing 100% processor power after a few minutes of moving sideways / mouselooking, every time i try to move after that, WoW.exe jumps to 100% processor usage. Thats why i get 4 or 5 steps before it locks up, it takes that long before it's consuming all my processor power (but as i said in an earlier post, jumping brings the processor usage down again to normal levels, until i stop and start moving again).
If i run WoW without IS, this does not happen (obviously, since taking control of the keyboard input from IS prevents the lockups).
A clean reinstall of Inner Space also resolves the issue until the next time i mouselook / strafe excessively, but once that's done, its permanently fux0red. I can restart (IS, WoW, My machine.. everything restarted) and the moment im into the game, processor usage goes into the roof when i start moving. An IS reinstall fixes it for a short time.
Well thats all i got on the issue, so i hope it helps ya find out whats up Lax.
