FOUND A
POTENTIAL TEMPORARY FIX for the northward facing bug by directly editing your current save file
I edited my saves with saveeditonline.com
Upload your save file(located on windows at folder \Kingdom of Subversion 0.28.1\kingdom-of-subversion\www\save), then find the "File unpack" button at the bottom of the page after uploading
Under the "player" status variable, change the highlighted variables:
change variable "_direction" to 2
change variable "_directionFix" to false

This let me move normally again but I don't think it will stop the bug from occurring again
IDK if it'll work for everyone but it worked for me
