Title: View arena bug
Post by: Celson on November 05, 2010, 12:28:33 AM
I recently noticed a bug at the arena that makes you view the arena for like 100 milliseconds then cuts you back to your normal view. Infact it can go either way. You could be viewing the arena and then suddenly it will cut your view back to yourself then immediately go back to arena view. I had never seen this bug until recently. And I'm not pressing any buttons at the time that it occurs.

The bug happened to occur while I was recording Igumal and Tyco-RC fighting on the arena platforms.

You can see it happen at about 0:55

On the bright side it does not happen often, but it's still a bug. Might be my computers fault?

Could you accidently be knocking your keyboard?
Otherwise I would suspect something wrong with you keyboard or drivers that makes it think you press it when you don't.

That is wierd. I have never had that happen, though I am not usually on the stands, I am dancing on the arena.

It would make sense if it simulated the keyboard pushing ctrl once, or a random number of times. But it's always simulating what would happen if you press ctrl twice really fast, every time. Quite strange.

I know how to read don't be such a bag kid, a simple no was ok that i was mistaken..And we don't know if you pressed any buttons but only logical reason was you did.

Hurrdurrdurr lets all get defensive and not think straight.
First off, bag kid? What the dick?
No, that's not even a half logical reason, why would Celson post a bug that he made up, that's just plain silly.

Does it happen only when you record?

Nah. It can happen anytime your on a spot where it says "Press ctrl to view arena" or whatever. Doesn't happen to often, but does happen.

Well, I have never experienced this as an issue...Though I may be able to provide a sort of explanation? I have had faulty circuits from long-term use in my keyboard before...It could be that something odd happened with your keyboard and it simulated 2 keystrokes of Ctrl? Obviously a little far-fetched but not too stray from possible. A test you could do is to try and recreate the event using a new keyboard...by sitting there for hours viewing in the same position you were on the map. Obviously that would be kind of monotonous to do...but that's the best trouble-shooting I can think of. Summing up though, since I'm sure during various tourneys we have all been in view-mode for long periods of time...and nobody else has ever experienced this...it is most likely a local issue for you.

Yeah, this is the wackiest kind of bug I'd ever see. It's obviously your hardware, not the software. You practically need a new keyboard. If that doesn't work and your computer is new, then someone rigged it.
