v12.1.13 - QoL Update: Auto-Run

This update introduces a small quality-of-life feature: a chat auto-run. Now you can lead your squad, share crucial information, and argue with your fellow teammates without being late to wherever you were going.

Opening the text chat while on the move, will engage the auto-run and keep you going in the same direction. And if you're driving a vehicle, the auto-run will hold the accelerator pedal for you.

This feature is optional and can be disabled by ticking off the "Keep Moving With Chat Open" checkbox in the input settings.
