Random Teleports during building

[Clare Evergarden]

I've been on SL for a long while now and have ran into many SL bugs in  the past, but this one is new, so I'm wondering if any one else is coming across this,

Seems to be happening only during building, things, at first I thought my keyboard was maybe showing signs of failing or maybe my mouse but the random teleports send me no where near where my mouse cursor was half the time, for what ever reason, the bug just has me teleporting to random spots, near where I start at, I stay on sim, so far no further then maybe a couple hundred meters or SL units what have you,

but it usually happens during building, it closes my build window, and just sends me teleporting, I've had it teleport me straight forward from where I was looking, or 200 straight up, or where I was looking, its really random, there doesn't seem to be any rime or reason, but its usually during building, when I'm moving my camera around, hints why I thought it might be my keyboard or mouse but I would expect it to teleport me where my cursor is or, it just seems to pick a direction, and teleports me once it finds a object in its path,

That said it could still be my mouse or keyboard failing, though I have no issues in any of my other games or programs so don't know, any one else having this issue?

Do you have double click to teleport turned on? If so, try turning it off and see if that helps.

If you have double click to teleport on, try shutting it off and see if that helps?

Sounds like a click to teleport bug.

I've been experiencing the same, with click to move.

Because it's a new effect, it might be something with a new viewer version, and Firestorm's recent release finally includes the "Custom Key Mappings" feature that was in a Linden viewer since April. It shouldn't teleport you anywhere weird, but it's all new enough there could be bugs, maybe?
