bug with k&m: can't parry

[Elettro46]

I think this bug is related to the same bug that causes you having to press buttons twice sometimes on beyboard, like to select abilities.

I have the barry button bound to the right mouse click.

Problem: when enemies do combo attacks you are able to parry the first hit, but it does not register at all the second mouse press.

and before people write it's bad timing, it's not I tested it multiple times, even when you press the parry button early the character doesn't have any animation + the parry icon on bottom left that usually lights up when you press it doesn't light up at all.

the button doesn't register please fix, it's a massive issue

reassign buttons and dont move the mouse :) be careful, lovely fans of this game will jump on u, insulting u with curses and telling u to get good or earn enough money to buy a controller even when u are a keyboard player. I love this game, but i can' stand its toxic fans

Even after 50+ hours on my file and 66 hours total (including deaths), I still have yet to see me fail a parry due to the keyboard issue. Though maybe my hardware is different. But I do get the sluggish combat menus like everyone else.

My guess would be that you putting it on mouse is causing the issue. Do you notice the same while parry is E?

your first keyboard input gets eaten to remove the mouse on the screen if you have moved it

yeah if I bind it with a keyboard button it works fine, sad tho cuz I wanted to use mouse

the game kinda encourages u to dodge :) take eveque enemies for example. It took me 35 trials to memorize the patterns and parry. The reason was due to the CHANGED pattern of the same freaking ground attack of these monsters during its full power phase (zoom-out camera + tightened window of parry are nightmares).

But all was thrown out of the window when these freaking same enemies appear again in the 3rd battle of 9 trial of endless tower. Their patterns and animations are the same but u guess what? their window of parrying for the ground attack was now half a second different :) . and u can guess what that means. Parrying is only worth it if the mechanic works as intended or devs dont cheat.

I make a simple autohotkey script to escape this bug:

~RButton::p


so when I press right button it also presses p, and I set the parry button to P
