Why don't some keyboard keys work when pressed simultaneously?
When playing with a keyboard, you may experience issues when pressing multiple keys simultaneously, for instance trying to use nitro while accelerating and turning. In such situations, some keypress may not register. This is however not a bug of SuperTuxKart, but a phyiscal limitation of your keyboard, most keyboards can only handle so many keys pressed at the same time (for more detailed information, please check here). The solution is to use a gaming input device (gamepad, or gaming keyboard), or tweak the keys configuration to find keys that your keyboard will be able to register simultaneously.

Yes, I know that, but the problem is that I was able to skid/nitro to the left while holding the keys at the same time before on other distros, like Zorin or Gentoo.
I don't think this has anything to do with stk itself.... try updrade / downgrade you libSDL2 if possible...

It's already fully upgraded, and I've also tried downgrading the entire thing. And how the fuck does this have nothing to do with STK, when I am, in fact, having an issue with the controls in the game?????
so figure it out yourself if you are that rude and terrible
one disadvantage of arch linux is that it's too new so it's very easy to catch regression btw

I didn't target you, at all! Like, how did you think so??? I didn't target you specifically, and even if I did, then I'll use even worse stuff to let you know that

too new? like, the libSDL2 of it? or just the distro in general?? or are you hating on rolling release distros in general?
Description
I cannot skid to the left for some unknown reason. I tried to fix it by reinstalling (both dirty (ran
sudo pacman -Syu
right away) and clean (cleared all of the config and cache files withsudo pacman -Rns
, then reinstall withsudo pacman -Syu
), changing the keybinds (Skidding key changed fromV
toX
, and Nitro key fromN
toZ
), changed the SuperTuxKart version from stable to git and vice versa, etc... but the issue still persists. What's weird is that on other distros I've used before (Zorin OS, and Gentoo), I was able to drift/nitro to the left without any problems.Steps to reproduce
Configuration
STK release version: git (development) version, though this problem can also be found on the stable one
STK Source (PPA, distribution package, official binary, etc.): distribution packages (pacman for stable version, and yay for git version)
System: Arch Linux
Graphics card: Intel UHD Graphics 620
CPU: Intel Core i7-8550U 2.00GHz
Gamepads/keyboards models if related to the issue: Laptop's (Fujitsu Lifebook E459) integrated keyboard
