Random movement; controls activating randomly

[Clarinet_Ukulele]

This issue had persisted for a few weeks.

Every time I try to play Blockland, whether online or singleplayer, from time to time, I will attempt to type a message and it just shows up as a giant clusterforget of letters and other miscellaneous things. Whenever I would try to walk, jet, jump, or build, so often, my character will continuously move in either some random direction or the direction or action I was performing, and I can't do anything else while that is going on, and it takes me about 10 times hitting that direction that my character is going to actually get it to stop, and then soon after that it will start up again with the same bullstuff.
I have a couple of theories on why this may be happening:

addons-
Specifically one. it's the AirSwimmer mod. Since it's the only one that has to do with player movement that I have found in my addons collection.

System-
I run Blockland through Wine software on linux. I doubt that has anything to do with it, but the option is still open.

Has anyone experienced the same? Does anyone have any suggestions that will help destroy what I can only assume is a bug?

I may try re-installing Blockland.

air swimmer is not the problem. sounds like a keyboard input malfunction or something.

The only reason that doesn't make sense is because it's only been happening with Blockland. If it were a physical problem with my laptop, it would be noticable in other applications.

Have you tried simply disabling or removing the Airswimmer mod to test?

This is a problem with wine, I get this from time to time and actually had no idea if anyone else ever had this problem ever because google reveals nothing.

It's caused by trying to do things during periods of lag. An easy way to reproduce it is trying to immediately type messages when you join a server. And this causes the input to repeat itself for god knows what reason when doing other inputs.

For example, if you happened to be trying to walk and this happened, then you try to type "hi badspot", it would probably show up as something like "hi bwwwpot".

For me though, this only happens so far in Blockland and Blade & Soul.

i meant that wine is probably not taking keyboard inputs correctly, as shift kitty explained. airswimmer does nothing that would possibly impact your typing input - its actually the lightest mod i've ever seen, with minimal code.

What version of Wine, OP?
wine --version in a terminal

[Shift Kitty]

I'm not OP, but this happens in 1.9.2 and 1.6.2 for me. Haven't played with 1.9.3 yet.

Whenever I used Blockland in windowed mode, the mouse would sometimes move on its own. But I use Windows so it might not be the case.

[Shift Kitty]

Happening in 1.9.3 as well.

Got it.

This has always happened to me, I've learned to deal with it since it had only happened in Blockland.
However if there is a solution, I would love to know of it.

What version of Wine
wine --version in a terminal

1.6.1 here.
