what setup have you got and do they run forever or stop eventually?

I know with mine especially with Keyclone and the PIP feature if I have a movement key pressed and switch to a different char, it'll get stuck on the previous char and I have to change back and use the same movement key to stop them. Or just mouseover to the clones screen and do the same thing.

I used to get this, until I told keyclone not to pass the shift-wasd (WASD) keys as well. I use the shift modifier for another cast bar, but if I hold it down while moving then sometimes I would experience what you are talking about (and it's often a rather rude surprise seeing one of your alts happily charging out of the current melee into a few groups of as yet unaggroed mobs :pinch: )

It's to do with pressing releasing shift before or after releasing any of the wasd keys.
So, you only DNP wasd but you do post the shift variants. If you then release shift before releasing any of the wasd keys, your alts will not register the release of that wasd keys and continue as if the key is still pressed.
The trick is to either DNP none of the wasd keys in all of its variants, or just to get used to always stopping moving your alts. So you drop the wasd key. But somehow that feels unnatural (at least to me). So I just use other buttons to move my alts now. :P It almost needs a conscious descision for me to release the wasd key before the modifier key. :P

But somehow that feels unnatural (at least to me)You won't get this anymore if you toggle the strict key passing option of Keyclone. There is however still an issue with alts sometimes starting to run when you tell them to /follow .

I have the DNP (WASD) keys in keyclone. I unbound the E & Q keys and use them for spells, no point and turning and straiffing. I do have a common key that tells all my alts to /follow (name). I dont use modifiers yet (shift,alt,ctrl). It seems to happen when i press the /follow key but not all the time. its like the alts see my main running or lagging and they follow him off in the distance even though i had already stopped.
