What does this mod do?
This mod attempts to fix MC-127862, a bug where pressing Right Alt locks your Control key, which makes pressing "a" on your keyboard delete everything you've typed in the text input and backspace deleting the entire word
How does it work?
I've experimented a bit and came up with a solution which (hopefully) works. We detect the delay between the right Alt and Ctrl being pressed, and if it happens simultaneously we forcefully release Ctrl to prevent the unwanted behaviour from occuring.
Will this mod be available for Forge?
Probably in the future.
