For the stuck running thing, I don't think this is PB specific. HKN, KC and IS Boxer get this too.

Basically just about every keypress in wow is executed on key release, except that modifier keys are executed on keypress. So if you are moving (following, running, interact with target etc) while a modifier key is pressed, it sometimes messes up.

This seems especially common, when you PiP switch from one toon to another either while moving or while using a modifier key hotkey.

The solutions are to press follow, which breaks the "run off into the sunset" thing. Or to press another modifier key combination, so warcraft is aware the key has been released.

Hey there,

The key stuck thing is actually an issue with the WoW client and general windows key state. It has to do with how WoW checks keyboard state but yet doesn't record sensible state information. So any software that does anything with virtualizing your keyboard would have the issue, since the issue is more with WoW than the software.

I'm actually toying around with a magic "Unstuck my buttons now yo!" button in Pwnboxer to automatically correct this. I think I will add it, and once it is added, it will automatically reset keyboard state on all keys when pressed.
