Steps:
I was leveling Botany by grinding nodes, and I decided to swap from using my keyboard to using my USB controller so I could play a little more comfortably, since grinding nodes is somewhat repetitive and boring.
After I finished leveling for the night I changed my format back to keyboard mode, and found that when using the "W" button move forward I could not use any other button to move, this includes "Q, A, E, D, and spacebar for Jump.
I could still use all those buttons when not touching the "W" button, but it seemed like it locked all the other buttons when I held "W" down.
This morning I was talking with a friend and we ended up fixing the problem. I cheanged my "W" Keybind from "Move Forward" to "Steer" and everything worked fine again. After that, she asked me to move "W" back to "Move Forward" to see what happens. I did and it was still working normal again.
She recommended I report this as a glitch, it seems like the "Move Forward" keybind glitched a little when I swapped modes.
