[0.8.8.1] Changing chat tabs and pressing ESC after permanently unlocks your mouse

Mentioned this issue in the Discord chat last night but now I actually know how to replicate it.

Opening chat, changing the tab and then pressing ESC right after to close the chat opens the menu. When closing the menu the mouse remains unlocked as if the chat or any other UI is still opened and you can’t click in to control the game anymore. It fixes itself only after a reload. You can still open chat, inventory, tab etc. but you can’t control yourself.

In condo: (it doesn’t let you move or control the camera)

Also affects game worlds (you can move around but can’t control the camera)

So that’s how it happens… I’ve got it happening a few times and never knew how.

As a workaround, this can be fixed without disconnecting by entering a new life then bringing up any menu that causes the cursor to appear.

(Example: Press “K” in Plaza then respawn, press C or TAB, problem fixed)

This can be done in the:

  • Plaza & Condo

    1. Press “K” to kill self
    2. Press “TAB”, “Q”, or “C” (or any mouse menu)
  • Minigolf

    1. Click on chat to type
    2. Enter a message or press escape
  • Ball Race

    1. Wait until next round or die
    2. Press “TAB”
  • Little Crusaders

    1. Wait until next round or die
    2. Press “TAB”
  • Virus

    1. Wait until next round or die (Getting infected does not fix)
    2. Press “TAB”
  • Zombie Massacre

    1. Wait until next round or die
    2. Press “TAB”
