So, I have noticed this with override and power down... if you are typing a message that includes these letters... not sure if it has to end with an "O" or "P"... it will actually Over ride or shut down your mech.

As an example, I was headed back to stop base cap.. on my way in team chat I typed "Need Help", well that caused my mech to power down... and we got capped out since that short delay gave them the time they needed.

Other issue with chat is not being able to hold the backspace key to quickly delete what you have typed. Not sure why this was changed or if it was intentional, but it needs to be fixed.

I work around this by ctrl + a and then backspace. Like in any regular textfield. I think shift + left arrow might 'highlight' some of the text you're writing from the end and might even work without constantly pressing. But it is difficult to see what is highlighted as the highlight is not visible, so that's not viable. So it's either all or pressing backspace real fast :)

Oh nice, I will have to remember that. Thanks!
