I currently use a G940 throttle/pedals and mouse combo when playing MW:O.

The issue is that when you switch to map or go to chat, the throttle drops to zero. I had this issue in a previous patch and I believe it was rectified. I guess something reintroduced it.

A fix would be appreciated as keeping up with the team is a real problem if commanding.

Also happens to me when using the numpad keys to set throttle level. I can team chat fine but global chat cuts throttle. Might be to do with the new lance chat option? Didn't happen last patch.

Actually it started with the last patch and is still there...annoying.

Since the 3/19 patch, eight of the controls which worked prior to the patch will not function. Also, when checking map or typing text, mech comes to complete stop. Tried some player fixes, and staff fixes. None have worked.

Same here.
I play old fashioned KB/Mouse only and about 70% of the time the throttle will drop to 0 when I call up the battle map (B ). About 1 time in 4 if I have used the number pad to set speed, I will remain at the set speed. But holding down the "W" key with the map up stops you dead.

This is particularly annoying as in a voiceless PUG seeing which way your fellows PUGers are flocking can help get in a not too despicable position. However if its at the cost of speed your OUT of position ...

Edit forgot to turn OFF smileys...

I used a Joystick with throttle and had the same issue.
If I set it to the middle (0%) and then used the keyboard to accelerate (with throttle decay off), the speed would stay in any "screen".
So It looks like the joysticks "emulate" a keypress for the speed and that doesnt work in chat/score/map screens.
