camera move bug.

Every time I alt tab out of the game when I come back in the arrow keys no longer work to move the screen around.   I must save and exit the game in order for it to start working again.   Not a big problem as I dont alt tab lots but still, it is annoying.   Anyone else had this and/or know a way around having to restart the game?

 

Thanks in advance.

It's a problem with DirectX somehow losing the input from the keyboard.  Usually it's fixable by alt-tabbing back out and in again...

Interesting...

I've noticed this in other games as well, so I assumed it was somehow windows-related.

Alt-Tab has always been shaky when running an application any more complex than Office or IE. My solution? I just make sure everything is closed and that all pop-up notifications are disabled when I'm playing a game, and do my best to never have to use Alt-Tab.
