Issue with in-game movement

Had my kid in my lap while playing and she slapped my keyboard a few times and messed up some in-game settings. I couldn’t figure out how to undo what she did so i reset everything to default.

The issue im having is this, when i move in any direction using WASD there is a ever so slight delay. about a half a second. I’ve been playing WoW for years and have never had this issue, did not start until i put all setting back to default. The camera movement when i hold right click is ever so slightly delayed too. Its driving me absolutely nuts and i cnt figure out how to fix this. Please help

I hope it is an issue with your settings. These spots might be a better place for a solution. That delay sounds concerning. I am sure you rebooted and checked your connection already, so perhaps getting connected with one of these other boards might be the next step.

no idea, but at least you have the greatest gift of all to help cope: a child’s laughter :expressionless:

This is where it would actually be appropriate to use an emoji with…an actual expression.

Have you tried using another keyboard to see if the delay isn’t that?
and have you tried turning on FPS display to see if the fps is running normally?

have you tried disabling VSync? Handynotes addon might cause this issue on some gpus. Disable all addons just in case… or you could try this command ingame.

/run print("Current Latency: "…select(4,GetNetStats())…“ms.”)

There are more console commands that could fix this like spellqueue in which case you might have the wrong number. If you want to check your spellqueu value type ingame:

/dump GetCVar(“SpellQueueWindow”)

now, to reduce the WoW key input lag, this value (SpellQueueWindow), needs to be at about 150 + your current MS, which in my particular case, would be 150 + 133 = 283, instead of the default 400.
To change this, all you need to do after running the math (150 + your current latency), is to type /console SpellQueueWindow 283 where 283 is the result of your own’s latency math, then verify the change via /dump GetCVar("SpellQueueWindow").

let me know how it goes

Uncheck v sync and check input lag settings.

If that doesn’t help u can try g sync which can be disabled in nvidia controlpanel.
