Important parts

**What is the issue you’re having?
Keyboard input will work for a short period of time (less than 10 seconds) when joining our server. All menu commands (T, M, F1, F4, Etc.) do not work as well as any other keys (running, crouching, etc) This affects all players that join. After anywhere from 30-200 seconds, keyboard input will work again. Controller input works fine; long pressing ‘Back’ will open F1 (our VMenu keybind).

**What are you trying to do?
Use the keyboard after joining our server.

**What have you tried already to fix the issue?
Nothing - don’t know where to start - I’ve looked at forums, but all seem to not understand the poster’s issue and talk about updating drivers, etc.

**Error screenshot (if any): None

**What did you do to get this issue? Joined my server

**What server did you get this issue on? Be specific and name some, ‘all of them’ by itself isn’t useful! 45.43.18.166

This affects all players that join

So this is likely server sided… is this your server?

[bcarr91]

Indeed, it is - I can provide anything I need to try to help to resolve this - it’s quite irritating.

Its really hard to say what could be causing it, it could be a resource… i would turn off resources and one by one turn them back on until it starts to happen again to pinpoint where its coming from.
