Hope someone out there can offer some words of wisdom.
I have a specific problem of my flying mounts running away from me. Doesnt happen all the time, just usually in BEM and i get shot down by one of the dragons :) .
Keyclone is setup to be a white list only and i pass Ctrl+Space to jump all toons into the air while Space alone is not passed (I keep that for each toons jump). Maybe 1 in every 10 times i tap them the toons will get locked into flying vertically skyward as if the keys permenantly behind pressed.
Any ideas?

Flying mounts.... I remember back in the day when we had to walk everywhere we went, and we liked it!!!
Kids today...

You might try setting up a key that doesn't require a combination of 2 to take off and see how that goes.

I use HotKeyNet (www.hotkeynet.com) for my keybroadcasting, but it should work the same. Do they keep moving that way if you push the key again (think toggle)? Do they keep moving that way if you send a different movement key (w, a, s, d)? Do they keep moving that way if you push a movement key on that alts keyboard (if you have a seperate keyboard for them)? Do they respond to other keys passed (does it get locked into that key and not accept others)? I think Blizzard broke /follow and moveemnt in a tiny way, so alts will try to overmove since last patch (looks ilke alts will run off, even if just on /follow), but does it work to try to get them to /follow you (does it break the movement)?

HotkeyNet used to have a similar bug, but it was fixed a few weeks ago in build 91. At least I think it was fixed. Nobody has reported it since then.

Out of curiosity do you have the mouseover to switch focus setting enabled?

It's th thing that keeps you from having to click on an instance to use it individually.

Un-Check Focus-Follow-Mouse and this will solve 99% of your 'runner' and 'spinner' issues. Everything else comes down to User Error :D

Never used Mouse over focus, it always seems to stutter fractionally when i tried it some time ago. Just enough to be annoying :)
I tried Frosty's idea and mapped to a single key and it hasnt happend once since. Hurrah!
Still find it odd that a combination of Ctrl and Space would lock the jump button down. The only way i could clear it was to manually go into each wow and stop them.
Thanks for the help guys

No its just you gurb :P

But with keyclone you might be mistakenly pressing the shift button (using do not pass list) which would send the walky thing to your toons and not releasing it. Just press shift and 'w' again and they would reset.
