Strange bug during loading

A strange bug occur during saving and loading a game.

When selecting a save file, the file selection move up as if I kept the up arrow key down, there is no stuck keys on my computer.

During saving this don't appear to cause any particular issues, but during loading, if I don't hit the "OPEN" button before the selection get on the top, the selected file on "FILE NAME" textbox disappear and nothing else happen, but if I am fast enough to hit "OPEN" on time, the game load without issues, also if I maintain the down arrow, it prevent the selection to climb.
It occurred on both 0.10 and 0.11 versions I downloaded, both in a E: and C: (for the 0.11 only) drive.

I did not see anything in the output_log.txt that indicate what happen, but still here it is in case :

I am on Windows 10 x64 and I have quite a few devices on my computer, but none cause any issue anywhere except for this game and only for this menu.

Correction, the bug also occur on bot programming interface, if I click on the scroll bar, it move up by itself, I confirm that it only happen on this game.

Is the game picking up a joystick axis ? The only one connected is my Logitech G13 which have a two axis joystick.

Ok this should be fixed in the next version but all I've done is stopped the game responding to Up/Down Arrow presses so I HOPE it works :)

Wouldn't it prevent players who move camera with arrow to play ?

I don't know your code for the game, but if you want you can make a simple little software who have the same key detection code as Autonauts and who basically write in a textbox the name of the detected input, so we will know if this is something from my computer or an actual issue with the game.

If it can help I'll test it.

Yeah actually I phrased that badly. I'm now blocking what ever key is bound to "Vertical".
