Keyboard Input Manipulation Delay
Posted: Sun Jul 16, 2023 12:13 pm
Hi!
I've noticed the following quirk using FreePIE:
Using following code:
Using this, if you press the right mouse button you will toggle the space keyboard key.
Now if you hold the space keyboard key when running the script and press RMB during that, the space key will lift for 0.01 to 0.05 seconds. Just a small blib.
But if you hold the RMB, then hold space and then release RMB while still holding space, the key is lifted for 0.1 to 0.5 seconds before it realizes that it'S actually pressed. Very noticable duration.
Why is that and is there a way to prioritize the actual keyboard inputs instead of the virtual ones?

Code: Select all
import time
if starting:
mtrigger = False
ktrigger = False
timer = 0
strigger = 0
SpaceUpTimer = 0
#mapper
if mouse.getButton(1) != mtrigger:
mtrigger = not mtrigger
keyboard.setKey(Key.Space, mtrigger)
#timer to measure duration when space is lifted
if keyboard.getKeyDown(Key.Space) != ktrigger:
ktrigger = not ktrigger
if not ktrigger:
strigger = 1
timer = time.time()
if ktrigger and strigger:
SpaceUpTimer = time.time() - timer
diagnostics.watch(keyboard.getKeyDown(Key.Space))
diagnostics.watch(SpaceUpTimer)Now if you hold the space keyboard key when running the script and press RMB during that, the space key will lift for 0.01 to 0.05 seconds. Just a small blib.
