Tank controls becoming "sticky"/tank moving by itself

[def.]

Started today,ping is usually 40-60 , packet loss during these moments shows 0%,no idea wtf is happening

[CH13F]

does the tank only moves forward/backwards?

No,sometimes turning left or right becomes sticky too,one time i couldn't even move my tower,i didnt hold C or anything,it just wouldn't respond to my mouse (while the camera moved still)

Had the same problem with my plane today, only restarting helped.

edit: 2nd time now....

Restarting did help me too,but it returned after a few matches

I'm just hoping it's the server hamster having a seizure,but if that were the case there would be way more people complaining.

My wife was having similar issues last night, and I had none.

Not extremely likely considering the turret being stuck, but could it be that you're playing the BT series of tanks? Their suspensions get stuck like that in real life too. Otherwise it's just the hamsters dying as always, a slow death over multiple months.

No,swedish tanks.

I also had this problem in test-flight. Pressed for example "E" to roll clockwise, and it didn't stop after releasing the button, mouse-movement was also only at ~10% speed. Last match I shot an unguided missile and was stuck in watching it fly....

edit: swedish planes btw

kind of weird that nobody else on the servers i played with had that problem or complained about anything,but i guess it's just the server hamster...

This happens to me sometimes, I think the problem is I have multiple language keyboards set up through Windows. I can usually fix the problem by toggling to a different language set. I don't know why it happens, but it does.

Just guesses.

If others were not affected, then: Might have been something unique to your own routing to the server. Routing will vary with a player's location and yours can be very different than others. Typically you'd see some PL, and/or excessive latency with bad routing and/or a server issue.

Another possibility: something running in the background on your PC that was consuming enough resources to affect the game's performance?

At least 3-4 people reporting this just on this thread,the possibility of all of us forgetting to disable something in the background/having individual router problems is very slim,but no,didn't have anything resource-heavy in the background 100%,and my internet seems to work fine outside of WT.

Played some Air Assault today. On first match, it felt like my mouse sensitivity was reduced and sometimes my guns didn´t stopped fireing after i let go of the button. It carried on into 2 test flights with planes and in hangar i noticed how my mouse didn´t pan teh camera around as fast, sometimes not even registering my click. A restart fixed the issue.

The reduction in mouse sensetivity was also a thing for me.

Just had the same problem, tank felt very sluggish and started spinning out of control.
