Yep it's definitely an issue with my keyboard, same behavior with this test application, thanks for pointing it!

Well actually it's while I was implementing it that I noticed this problem, so yep a solution for someone experiencing this issue too is clearly to map his inputs differently, and anyway someone using the KP keys to move the character won't use shift to run (as the mouse is needed too), it will probably be mapped to another KP key.

Also note that some people nowdays buy keyboards without numpad. The madmen.

Yeah, not everyone has a numpad. Actually, even when I had one I never used it. And most laptops don't have them either. Customization of key inputs is king.
