Whenever I have movelock on, and somebody bumps me, my avatar starts to walk in place. It doesn't stop until I manually enter a movement command.

Anyone else having this problem? It's not serious, but it's embarrassing. I mean, here I am, using a sophisticated system to keep from looking like a bump-able noob, and I wind up doing this bizarre St. Vitus' dance.

The same thing happens to me too.

I'll be honest.. movelock.. with H4.. not so neccessary now.

it's really hard to push people. Even old beachball guns barely nudge people anymore, and walking up to someone and pushing them, is nearly impossible. WITHOUT any fancy defense systems.

Walking in place, is the new falling in place.

Yes, it's a little too aggressive for its own good. It always was, but Havok 4 shows it up a little more dramatically =)

Is it Havoc 4 that under camera controls makes my screen view zoom in and out of its own accord. Last night it did it so much I felt seasick and I am a sailer.

No, that's the viewer. Havok 4 is the server-side physics engine. Are you using the Release Candidate (1.20) viewer? It has some camera movement issues, I think related to the implementation of 3D mouse (e.g., Space Navigator) support.

I don't know if it's Havok 4 or the Release Candidate, but this happens to me as well.

And in answer to your question, Lindal...I've not been bumped recently, so I don't know; however I have experienced that little movelock related dance upon arrival after a teleport...I bounce around a lot and do a little dance then...

Noes... That's Windlight. (=_=)

And about movelocks... I've never seen a reason to use one. I have always been too short for Brash attacks to launch me. And, I never AFK while standing in a crowd. The few people that I know who seriously use movelocks are targeted for pushing BECAUSE they have movelocks on. Since they work so wonky... Heh... Leave me outta that party. (=_=)y

I noticed that after Havok4 was rolled out, if I had my Movelock on then I would bounce a lot after a TP and I would keep trying to walk into the person when doing a Hug. I keep the Movelock off most of the time now and do not seem to have any bump/push problems.

I noticed this on the Havok 4 side of the beta grid, but didn't think a thing about it.

There, I have the movelock on where I don't on the main grid. This came about since some idiot decided to REALLY test the physics system by doing as many spam-tarded things as they could in the sandboxes there. I don't visit sandboxes anymore on the main grid... :(

You should see mine and the partner's kiss animation with movelock on since Havok 4. It's a hilarious little humpty dance for sure.

Movelock's response to bumps seems to work fine for me, like it always has. TP's are a bit wierd sometimes when you walk/bounce up & down till you turn movelock off.

I had this happen to me last night.. it was weird and annoying. If anyone know how to fix this I will buy him/her a beer.

Edit: No, i am not using the RC client.. I am using the latest official release.

Yes. They've been tweaking the camera stuff with server updates and it has improved, but it does seem to need a little more help, doesn't it?

I tend to agree. Never needed a MoveLock or anything like that.
