:A question and a fact:
:#Gumby, is there any reason why you are calling this effect "unsticiking"? There is no mention of "unsticking" in the engine apart from the '''unstick''' keypress event, which I think corresponds to Ctr+Alt/Shift+U (because it indeed "unsticks" a "stuck" character).

:#One and for all, I'd like to stress that it is ''not'' true that "the camera goes flying away". What happens is that the ''character'' drifts away, the velocity being frozen. The character is not rendered during the drifting. If you jump, the camera fails to drift up.

:::The drifting caused by ] can be called "the ] bug/feature". As for the thing you're trying to fix, when and if you're sure the problem is with the cheat buffer, then I'd call it the "cheat buffer bug", intuitively enough. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 05:23, 16 November 2008 (CET)
