Hi Yohandy,
First, I had to shut down the Blastbay list due to email traffic
restrictions on my server. I switched to a discussion forum instead, which
people are very welcome to join.
Second, the way this works is as follows. There is a counter that says how
often you are allowed to press the space bar key. Whenever the key is
pressed, the counter is reset so that you have to wait another x
milliseconds before you are allowed to press it again. This means that, if
you press it so fast so that you are doing it while the counter does not yet
allow you to, you will be wasting a few moments pushing down and releasing
the key. So while it is actually not letting you do it more slowly in
reality, the fact that it takes time to push down and release the key causes
this. Hence, the best way is as you say to tap the key in a sort of rhythm
which could be considered a bit of a skill in itself and would thus add some
more individuality to each player so to speak. Especially, of course, since
the allowed speed is different for each weapon so it takes even more
practise. In short, this is not a bug but a very much intended behavior.
Kind regards,
Philip Bennefall

Subject: [Audyssey] q9 bug possibly
Since the blastbay list no longer exist I'm posting this here. I don't
know if anyone has noticed, but when you're killing enemies, if you hit
space bar very quickly your attacks will slow down. this is bad because
enemies will get a chance to attack back if you aren't attacking them. you
need to hit space bar in a sort of tapping motion to get maximum number of
swings with the club. I think this is definitely something that requires
fixing so that no matter how quickly you press space bar, you swing the
weapon at maximum speed. Hope this makes sense and that it'll keep people
alive longer!
