I didn't expect this to get any attention whatsoever, so to see a developer posting about actually having worked on this makes me really happy. Thanks Myran, even if it doesn't work out, i appreciate you giving it a shot.

Bug Reports / Autofire mode is missing, making the game a perfect recipe for getting RSI

« on: January 03, 2014, 01:02:22 PM »

RSI is this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repetitive_strain_injury

It's caused in this day and age primarly by computer use with a lot of repetitive actions. Due to the way Hammerwatch works the most successful way of playing is to hammer the attack key as fast as possible. This makes it an excellent cause for RSI.

If you're younger, or of excellent health you may not notice it, but for me the game is literally unplayable, as the pain in my fingers is unbearable by the time i've played 15 minutes.

I really love almost all aspects of the game, the graphics, the design and gameplay. However as long as input remains as broken as it currently is, the only thing i can do is warn my friends from buying it.
