Impossible to use keyboard and trackpad at the same time El Captain 10.11.1

[pemekch]

So the thing is simple: when I use my keyboard and trackpad to move camera around, random buttons are pressed. Like spacebar or "m"

I reinstalled it, its vanilla, I tried previous version, the same thing, what is it can be?

[sal_vager]

Most likely it's your trackpads gesture settings, KSP does not bind the spacebar or any other key to the trackpad motion or buttons.

But my trackpad settings are no different from other people..

Okay, well the first thing to do is to test that the trackpad gestures are not at fault here by disabling them.

Another test would be to try using a mouse with KSP, to see if you still have errant keystrokes with the mouse and without using the trackpad, and to try KSP style motions such as those you are using to move the camera but in a text editing program, to see if any keys are typed into that.

Then [U][URL="http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/92230-%21%21%21-PLEASE-READ-BEFORE-POSTING-%21%21%21-Stock-Support-Bug-Reporting-Guide"]see the thread here[/URL][/U], as we can't help you without more information, we will need the Player.log, the KSP.log, a full system specification including installed drivers, and a full list of software you are running while you play KSP.

I'm sorry but this is very far from a simple problem, KSP isn't known to do this so we need as much info as possible to find out why it's happening to you.

[B]KSP Version: [/B]1.0.5.1028 [B] [/B]Mac OS X 10.11.1 64Bit[B]

I think if exiting Punto Switcher helps, maybe turning off the "auto-switching" feature in it might help too.

Okay well I don't know what bolding your post is supposed to achieve, but I think it's quite clearly punto switcher that is causing the issue here because this issue does not occur when it is not running.

KSP will react appropriately to the commands sent to it, if those commands are mangled by other software there's not really anything Squad can do about it, Squad would have no access to the code of punto switcher and it is not their responsibility to fix it.

The logs as well show nothing wrong as far as KSP is concerned, there are no errors so KSP is receiving exactly what it is sent by the operating system.

[U][URL="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=punto+switcher&t=canonical"]A quick search[/URL][/U] shows that there are higher numbered versions of punto switcher available, so you could try the latest version as it may fix the bug in punto switcher that is causing this, [U][URL="https://punto.yandex.ru/"]the latest version looks to be 4.1[/URL][/U], this is much newer than the version you are using.

Or try another software such as [U][URL="https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/RuSwitcher"]RuSwitcher[/URL][/U].

Sorry I can't help further.

Yep, [COLOR=#333333]auto-switching is the thing.
Latest version for os x is 1.5, for windows is 4.1, but thanks for the suggestion. Bolding was occasional [/COLOR]:D
