keyboard controls getting stuck when attempting to move to a starting option that is locked

[lilmike]

Hiya,

I'm loving this mod, I've wanted to play balatro for so long, as I'm a huge roguelike fan. I'm encountering an issue where, upon moving to a starting option (after pressing c on the keyboard to start a game), and said starting option is locked, the wasd keys will no longer do anything. I'm not sure why this is happening, but last time it happened it defaults to said option upon restart of the game so now I kind of can't play lol..

Update: It looks like keyboard controls doesn't stop working, but speech stops. I suspect, though I haven't been able to verify, that the accessibility mod is somehow crashing. I could try and fix it if I could get a log, but I can't figure out how to see tracebacks.

To stop interference of other controls, the menu for starting a run suppresses all other unrelated inputs. You can get out of the menu at any time by pressing the key mapped to the start button on the controller. By default, this is the escape key. Are you able to use the Kea mapped to the shoulder buttons to navigate to other options while in the menu?

So it turned out that this was an issue with my use of a fake tolk dll that communicates with speech dispatcher on linux. I am, in fact, using balatro under steam play on linux. I did some debugging, and found that the culpret was the mod trying to speak an empty string, which apparently made the dll crash. I hotfixed it by adding ``` if text == "" then return end ``` To the beginning of the say function. Feel free to close this, and implement that if you see fit.
