The first problem is called ghosting, also known as "keylock" among WA players. It's a hardware limitation of your keyboard. You can bypass it by remapping your spacebar to, say, Alt or Shift (AutoHotKey will do the job), or buying another keyboard.

1 - It's a hardware issue, you can't do anything about this, but you can switch your space to another button by using some key remapper or buying a modern antighosting keyboard;

2 - Are you running W:A as admin? (Windows 7/8) Don't do it. Have you Installed the lastest update (3.7.2.1) ?
By the way, don't install your game in the 'program files' folder, install it in the default directory! (C:\Team17\Worms Armageddon). Otherwise you must run the game as admin.

vicious cycle if you install into program files indeed  :D

don't do it and run it normally.

PS: btw the admin maximize issue can also be solved with D3D9wnd (dunno why )

Dec 30 2013 23:59:49 <StepS> you need it to be actually bigger
Dec 31 2013 00:00:13 <StepS> it actually is very small on my 15-inch full HD screen
Dec 31 2013 00:00:25 <StepS> while running at 640x480 or stretched mode makes it fuzzy
Dec 31 2013 00:00:44 <StepS> this problem has been around since the Worms Armageddon's release and no one has even tried to beat it

Don't install the game in the 'program and files' folder, until you do that running as admin will not be needed, good that I could help you!

it is better for aero system :) while minimizing, not flashing screen as many times, on slow computers is terribly annoying, time-consuming, sometimes end up spoiling colors ;)

colors can not be spoiled on 3.7.x anymore, unless you purposefully enable 8-bit rendering, which you shouldn't do.
minimization is also smooth now (almost instant) on 3.7.2.1
your argument is invalid
