Yeah I noticed this issue myself the other day. It's because of the keypress event handler, which is supposed to switch your focus away from the chat window if you press a key within the chat area. It's a touch too...sensitive at the moment because presumably it's catching the "CTRL" part of your keypress and switching focus before you can hit "C". I'll tweak this if possible.

I clicked to change the chat window font and could not figure out how to remove the font screen. I dunno if that's a bug but it sounds like a bad thing. The font screen wouldn't disappear.

There should be a little X button to close it at the top right. It would be very odd if you didnt get that. I suppose you might not have loaded the icon font so try just hovering your cursor in the top right anyway and seeing if a little box gets a different background.

I found the X button much later, I don't think the images loaded at that moment.

I am still having issues with chat not loading. I am getting the "If this takes longer than 30 seconds, it will automatically reload a maximum of 5 times." message and it doesnt go away no matter how many times I clear my Byond Cache or reconnect. This is rather frustrating.

That's very odd, everyone else with that issue appears to have been fixed.
Please give me your: OS, Internet Explorer version, your byond key and the in-game name you usually play by.

I seem to have the same problem, my BYOND key is Carlarc, and I usually play by Gandork The Blue, I use Firefox and Windows XP.

your internet explorer version is important. byond is hard coded to use it to run web windows

Yea the IE version was the problem. Updated IE to the best version I could get and it fixed the problem.

Well apparently I can't download IE because I'm on XP!
I'm probably being a massive idiot again, but the crappy windows site doesn't let me do it.

Windows 7 allows you to uninstall IE and byond will still work if you do so. If you use Win7 or newer you just have to make sure Windows is up to date and can forget about IE.

Unsticky-ing this thread as all the major issues appear to be fixed. New bugs can either be reporting by bumping this thread or creating new ones.

I set 'admin' as one of my highlighted strings and then everything Lison said in OOC after the round got highlighted.

Hah. Yeah it looks for any match in the entire message, including html. Admin messages often have some variant of an "admin" css class so that got highlighted.
In fact if you highlighted "entry" you'd match every type of output in the chat ever.
I will look into fixing this/improving highlighting but it's a low priority.
