bring back wait

[offset]

Removing the wait key was something that got to me p.p. It's not like making minor scripts for binding things like "speed lunge" or whatever hinder gameplay for other players... all players have access to it and its pretty easy to figure out. Scripting like this is allowed in all competitive gametypes in jka such as ctf, nf, ff and strafe so I don't see why you would disable it here.

You aren't supposed to be using scripts to automate things like that anyways, it's only 2 keys.

My point is ---> Why not? Why can't I use scripts? it's only a nuisance when you yellow dfa by accident. no skill involved. I'm not specific to just speed lunge anyways.... scripts just make things less complicated than they unnecessarily are. It was built into the game and it's a legitimate tool, but it seems some dev rage removed it out of nowhere tbh :S

They also can make bad behaviors like lags (and hard to aim you) in the wrong hands.

This is the most probable reason it was removed. The one bad apple will always ruin it for everyone else.

Pretty sure this was intended to prevent lag scripting, something that was exploited quite a bit.

server admins can ban lag script abusers themselves

 

[Supa]

That's a temporary fix. Our's was a permanent solution. In this one case, we would have been in the wrong if we ignored it.

how did the lagscripts work anyway? maybe it's possible to restrict different command than wait or code a new function that would allow delays in script execution?

I can't change my saber color multiple times in one key anymore :c

 

[Cat Lady]

Which is good, cause random changing of color during fight is irritating and confusing for other players

was there like 2 ways of doing it.? or are they both gone now

Flood yourself with controlled commands or something along those lines.

lagscripts were a huge problem, not only because of the unfair advantage but also the ability to duplicate ammunition with them in builds previous.

While it was fuckin' fun... I don't miss it

??? I can still do it but i have to press 4 keys lel
I wasnt and im not using it during fight

Wait had a very abusable function while allowed the user to run and fire accurately with any gun. This was very strong especially with wookiees.

This was an unfair advantage and was subsequently removed.

How do you do this?

 

[Cat Lady]

He binds color change to one key, then another color change to another key, etc...

Another good reason to have the command disabled. This type of script could cause lag for certain computers.
