Is this a known bug with attaching/releasing the rope?

[readyworm]

I find that the space bar doesn't work to attach or release the rope when the UP and LEFT arrow keys are pressed at the same time. 

I'm running the latest patch, 3.7.2.1

Is this a known bug? Does anyone else experience it or know a fix?  I've disabled WormKit modules etc but no joy.  It's fine when UP and RIGHT arrow keys are pressed at the same time.

Thanks

It's your keyboard.. a hardware limitation, not WA's fault. Some cheap $7 keyboards work well, some more expensive ripoff brands ones do not. See this thread for some keyboard recommendations. https://www.tus-wa.com/forums/worms-armageddon/best-overall-keyboard-for-roping-in-worms-armageddon-32467/

Alternatively you could try using wkRemapKeys. Sometimes you can use different buttons for spacebar or for the arrows, since not all keys are affected. https://worms2d.info/WkRemapKeys

Cheers for the info! Glad it's not a W:A issue.  I was using a pretty bog standard Dell keyboard. Tried another and it's fine! Thanks again.

You can also use this link and check which keys can be pressed simultaneously with arrow keys https://drakeirving.github.io/MultiKeyDisplay/

When you find out, just remap space button on other key and it will work alright on cheapest keyboards.
J0e already sent you link for W:A key remapper.
