Post wep firing
i seem to be able to break the recoil rate on some weps letting me fire them as fast as i can spam the space bar.

There is no hardcap on rate of fire, it's limited by server performance only.

I think he means that, even if a weapon has a 2sec recoil, he can fire 4 shots in 1 seconds as long as he presses the spacebar 4 times in 1 second.

Post Re: wep firing
the most reliable way i did it was by spaming the space bar. however i have not tried it in the past couple days so it may or not still do it...

*Edit just tested it out a few minutes ago and it still allows me to fire faster by tapping the space bar.

I can replicate this too.

Spam the space bar. I just did it and holy crap. Thoraxes should NOT be able to fire that fast. I can make a video to show it if needed. But spam the crap out of your space bar it breaks any ROF cap, to the point where thoraxes looked like lasers. O_o

Looks like a bug with the new code I added so your RoF evens out to the correct amount regardless of server mini-lags.

Fixed this, and yeah, it was a ton of fun. Get's me thinking about super items that only take away part of the charge when you use them so you can Spam multiples in a batch...
