I started my own game, not shown in the lobby, and I was the only one there. As soon as I pressed the T, Y, or / buttons, there was a bunch of text all over my screen, including numbers and vertical lines that stretched down my whole screen. It kept happening until I exited the game and started it up again. I could've sworn I took a screenshot, but my Screens folder is empty. Sorry about that.

However, I also noticed that when I press the chat button, "say: wdd" comes up at the bottom of my screen. This happens all the time. I'm not sure why. The letters "wdd" are already typed in.

This is a strange rare bug, possible reason:
Be sure not install Soldat in a path like "C:\program files\bla bla\porn.midgets\soldat", keep it simple like "c:\bestgame".

Ah, alright. My directory is in C:\Program Files\Soldatbeta. I figured out why wdd kept coming up though. :P It was because I was an idiot. I had accidentally pressed T and tried to move, thus pressing WDD. The chat console is made so that anything you type will not be deleted until you send or delete it yourself. I just kept clicking the mouse button, so the WDD was never deleted.

Hm.. but I also know that sometimes, it seems to happen at random times, when someone writes something in the chat, your screen is filled with what you said - letters, numbers, anything. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has experienced this, yet. But yea, the problem is it seems to happen at random times.

Haah I know where Michal keeps his porn now (Midget porn that is >.<)! :D

As for the text thing with the weird yellow lines and numbers and text, I always thought that was the result of someone using bad charactres in there name, or in the chat... but I don't really know, I still get it from time to time

The font display is some DirectX code, it's Microsofts fault not mine :).
