Too much AI for TAB

I've got a problem in CLAN 0.13 webtiles version - sometimes, when I use auto-fight, my character instead of simple attacking foes tries to reed scrolls and use them on enemies. Bad thing, he usually does it successfully. Worst thing, the scroll usually is Blink Scroll.
I wasted 3 BS this way, used Magic Mapping once and got message about me not having "such item" three times in a row somewhere between TABs (This thing even dares to complain that I don't have any Blink Scrolls to waste!).

You probably hit the '`' button, which repeats your previous command, rather than the tab button.

It is completely impossible for autofight to do anything like that. It only moves you toward enemies or attacks them in melee. wheals's explanation looks plausible to me.
On IRC my nick is reaverb. I play online under the name reaver, though.

Impossible or not, it did it.

Re: Too much AI for TAB

Autofight uses the r key to center the cursor when firing or reaching. If some of the keys sent (such as the preceding f or v) somehow get lost, this would lead to trying to read a scroll, corresponding to one of the inventory letters hjkl (the vi keys used for moving the cursor to the target). So most likely it's an issue with some of the commands sent getting lost. Are you having lag or connectivity problems or other general network or computer troubles? If so, you can probably fix your problem by fixing those. This may be possible by switching to a different server.

I think this pretty much my case. Yep, sometimes I have quite a lag on CLAN server (which is weird, I usually have good latency with Europe) and I use spear as a weapon. Sometimes I can even notice targeting part of reaching when I use autofight, so I thought my problem has something to do with it. Thanks for explaining!
