Very rarely I hit the "AI off" button (bottom left), to take full control of the party.
Eh? what's that broadcast command? I can't find it in the keyboard mappings anywhere

Game is 1.21 I think right now, checking patch history it seems it jumped from 1.13 to 1.21 so you're probably right. I don't really have a problem with the camera, specially now that I 'detached' it from the main PC, now it just stays and moves wherever I want it to (It stills acts up whenever it hits stuff like houses, but I can live with it)
I also found a merchant in Neverwinter that sells gems, so I didn't lose much by selling all I had before (just some money).
