At the very beginning of a match if you open the Chatbox during the startup sequence. then wait until after it finishes when you're able to control your 'Mech. You can issue cockpit commands while typing.
Like if you were to press "P" it will shut down and start your 'Mech even though the Chatbox is open. After you close the Chatbox and open it again it will work as normal, it's just if you open it during the startup sequence animation.

1. Game will send P from a chat line to the command section of code, ex,

press Y
type "c4 help"
hit enter (within up to a second of the P on help)
mech shuts down when your being swarmed and you just asked for help
This is very easy to reproduce, type help hit enter quickly, you shutdown, not working as intended

2. You cannot 100% of the time press more that three inputs from the keyboard, the subsequent inputs are ignored by the control code.

ex. pressing W and D to accelerate and turn right, with both held down press H to enable heat vision, it doesn't actually turn it on most of the time

I hear the Search function is really useful: http://mwomercs.com/...-receive-input/

This bug also allows mouse input from the Options Screen: http://mwomercs.com/...-while-in-game/

Yes it is rather annoying when this happens.
