What happened?

Movement keys (WASD) appear to get stuck in the logical down position.

So you end up stuck in a moving state and you have to press the 'stuck' key to stop moving in that direction.

My friend and I have both experienced this recently in DayZ which leads me to think it's a DayZ bug, introduced quite recently.

It's only happened to me a couple times but it's particularly prevalent for my friend.

I'm not sure if it's possibly worsened for someone who drops more frames?
I know this can be an issue if the main game loop momentarily stalls, it may fail to see the key up event.

Reproduction steps

    Happens on EXP too, vanilla, so can confirm it's not a mod issue
