Any way to disable this new smart un-away system?

Hi,

I was curious about that too.
if you set /away manually you can't move your mouse? if so this is wrong

Right. Even if it's not the active window. I thought for a moment that I'd solved the problem by alt-tabbing out of the window and then back into the window and AFK status stayed enabled. I then alt-tabbed to the other window again and moved the mouse and the FFXIV window recognised the movement and I was instantly not in AFK mode anymore.

The new auto-afk settings is set that if you enter the auto-afk mode, any action (like moving your mouse) will bring you out of auto-afk instantly. At least that was how I inferred it to be from the patch notes.

Except the new settings are also effecting setting afk manually via /away or /afk.

Ahh. Didn't know that.... Well that sucks...

Oh that sucks. We need both auto-away and manually set afk.

Is this to combat those thrice damned afk healing/auto pilot scholars?

Just tested, seems you have about five seconds or so to change the game's focus before it'll switch you back from being away.
Additionally, changing the auto-away to off does nothing to keep it from auto-"backing" you.

Odd, didn't have the same experience. Alt-tabbed, stayed away even if I moved the mouse over the game window.

Just curious, do you have enabled the setting for using controllers while the window is out of focus? I can't test it right now because of the maint but it just occurred to me that I did have that enabled so maybe that was how it sensed mouse movement despite being out of focus. Will have to see when I can next get in.

Shouldn't be enabled, I don't use a controller anyways. I could, but really don't feel like it'd have any benefits over Naga.
