Sqrt(2) problem?
Struggling to get through some water section, I noticed that the movement forward and the strafe movement, when done simultaneously, is combined. This leads to a faster movement speed than you could get otherwise, at least in water. I'm assuming this is the vector combination of the two movements. I don't know if the original daggerfall did this (I suppose it probably did) but I just thought I'd point out.

I think I should have posted this (and the other one) in Help and Support. I don't want to cross post and can't seem to delete this one so if someone wants me to post it over there, please let me know.

I've also noticed this effect in water but I quite like it so didn't give it a moments thought. Do you consider it an issue?

Re: Sqrt(2) problem?
It depends I guess. It certainly helped me when I discovered it.
I guess if it's the way the original behaved, then it's technically correct. If not I thought it might be considered a bug. That's why I posted it without qualifiers. More of an FYI in case it wasn't considered and the team thought it should be.
