I wanted to report the problem in the wiki Bug reports and a work around for gamers

the following is true, and can be prevented

BUG REPORTS : WIKI
----------------------------------------------------------
Sticky Keys
Sometimes when you are scrolling on the map the keys will seem to stick, and you will keep scrolling forever. This happens when you release a key out of the order in which it was pressed.

Example:

8
Shift+8
Shift
No key pressed.
After holding the above keys you will continue going up until you press the following or Alt+Tab.

Shift+8
Shift
8
This will clear out the pressed key flag in the game.

I've found if you merely press the direction key of the scrolling on the numpad this scrolling stops. No need to fiddle with the shift or in what order the shift key is pressed.--Mylon 17:35, 13 November 2007 (EST)
That won't work if you were using shift to accelerate your move speed. You have to tap the key with shift pressed to clear out the shift+key then press just key to clear it out as well.--Ikkonoishi 21:38, 13 November 2007 (EST)

The fix is to turn off your numlock key so that the "sticky key" wont activate
simple solution --- numlock off while playing

Seems to happen far less when numlock is alternated from the standard position. Not able to boot it here at work but I believe Numlock on produces almost all of my sticky keys issyes, numlock off I never seem to see it.

This happens to me ALL the time. I found that switching to another program and then back fixes it. Turning off my numlock key is too annoying because I forget to turn it back on when I need it.
