Whilst moving around in-game, one of my keys (either W,A,S,D or the spacebar) always acts as though it is still being pressed down

this results in my player moving in that direction even when I don't have my finger on the button

this is extremely frustrating, especially when I'm playing a game where the right movement is crucial such as a fighting game (makes me walk straight out of cover unintentionally) or an obby where it just makes me keep jumping or walking straight off a brick

this has been happening since I upgraded to os x el capitan and requires me to spam whichever key is 'stuck' in order for it to stop moving in that particular direction or jumping

if it helps, here are some of my computer specifications:

Macbook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)
Processor: 2.5 Ghz Intel Core i7
Memory: 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB
Running OS X El Capitan, Version 10.11.1

please help

Don't worry, this is a system glitch with Roblox. To reset it, try holding the opposite direction and pressing "esc" and then pressing it again. It should reset the key orientation.

Another solution is to switch out of your client (with no keys held down, otherwise it will do the glitch as well)

@OmegaGmaster

Unfortunately, what you suggested didn't work and I did this multiple times to ensure that I was doing it right.

Thank you for answering at least.

I don't think this is just mac os, I had this happen on windows 7,8/8.1 and 10, and on android lollipop, although not frequently.

Lets not make this another OS war thread.

OP its a problem across all operating systems, it has to do with your keyboard's interaction with roblox, its essentially on a delay and roblox cant figure out what its doing in time. It happens to alot of mac chiclet keyboards other laptop keyboards like the ones on Chromebooks or other netbooks.

Try updating the drivers for your keyboard, or revert to an older one.

@lmmy

I really appreciate you replying to the original issue I proposed instead of stating your opinion about which operating system is the best. :p

Unfortunately, I checked the firmware of my built-in Apple keyboard and it was already up-to-date. Downgrading isn't really an option either so...

Thanks anyway!

Would you like to send an error report to Microsoft? If you do not send an error report, nothing will happen, If you choose to send an error report, nothing will happen. Windows can't be bothered. Try again later. Windows is shutting down because internet explorer loaded in under an hour. Warning! This operation will open the dreaded internet explorer. Do you seriously want to continue. Downloading new errors from Microsoft... ERROR Would you like fries with that?
