WASD delay

[LordOfQc]

Hi, I am creating a TPS map and I am using WASD movements and I have a lot of delay. I did some research and they said that triggers with key pressed or buttons pressed and thing like that will have a delay on B.net but I tested some maps on SC2 that are using WASD keys and it has almost no delay. I don't know why mine has a delay. Can anyone help me please? Thanks

When you have one key press detection event, every time a key is pressed (regardless of which key it is) it will generate network traffic. As such, having a large number of players or a number of these events can have a large impact on the in-game lag. I would recommend that you find some tutorials on WASD movement (there are plenty of them around) to help solve your issue.

On a side note, I heard there was a method of detecting WASD movement by using hotkeys attached to dummy abilities which was supposed to dramatically improve lag.

Battle.net has a minimum latency of 125 MS I think and lag reduction system. Key press events, as said, create a lot of traffic. There are some work arounds (i.e. not using key press events), but regardless of what you do you will still have something like a tenth of a second of delay unless someone has or develops a way to reduce the latency.
