Contrary to popular belief, we are not all-knowing-all-seeing magical beings!

If you want help you're going to have to provide lots of info. Like what is your hardware, what is your operating system, what version of GZDoom/LZDoom/whatever you're using, what mods you're loading, how you're loading it, what you've already tried for fixing the problem, and anything else that is even remotely relevant to the problem.

We can't magically figure out what it is if you're going to be vague, and if we feel like you're just wasting our time with guessing games we will act like that's what you're really doing and won't help you.

During gameplay when i press esc key to pause the game the menu opens briefly and closes automatically tested on both opengl and vulcan renderers and on mulitiple wads such as ultimate doom,doom2,heretic it also affects the console commands. Due to the issue i cant make a demo.

Happened to me once some time ago. In my case it was my keyboard, which was on JP layout without me realizing it. It got solved after changing back to my regular one.
