Sneaking and then opening the chat forces the IME to switch to the corresponding CJK mode

Reply to [MCQA] EmA:

I just found out that this is a Windows system setting issue. The problem described on this page occurs when the compatibility option is not enabled, i.e., when using the new version of Microsoft Pinyin.

The third-party software I use does not affect the game's performance. The issue occurs even if I press the Shift key only once.

My system information:

• OS: Windows 10 Pro

• Version: 22H2

• OS Build: 19045.6466

Therefore, the solution is to enable the compatibility option.

This is a issue affecting Chinese IME:

when using Microsoft Pinyin, under certain circumstances, it does remember the player's last used input language mode. However, I have found that after I sneak (press the Shift key) in the game, the next time I press the "T" key or "/" key, it defaults to Chinese mode and forgets the player's last used input language.

It only remembers the last used input language mode if I never press the sneak key at all.

Expected behavior:

Open chat box → Press Shift to switch language mode → Send message or close chat box → Sneak → Open chat box again → Remain in the previous language mode.

Actual behavior:

...... → Sneak → Open chat box again → Always stays in Chinese mode.

This issue occurs not only in the chat box but also in other text-input fields, affecting gameplay such as command input.

Currently, I am only discussing Microsoft Pinyin; this issue has not been found with other IMEs for the time being.
