I was just laying in bed moments ago, pondering how the hell one of us here nerds could solve the laggy, laggy problem of the key press event.
Am I correct in saying that pressing hotkeys for spells and abilities does not cause the same lag? If so...
Isn't there a way to make abilities run triggers? We could set up spells on the command card for moving in certain directions, with hotkeys of W, A, S, D. Each button would run the trigger that is otherwise activated by the key pressing event.
Keep in mind that I probably don't know what the hell I'm talking about, as last night was an awesome party.
when youre looking forward in tps mode, you see the whole entire map plus units when your looking straight ahead. so when your lagging try aiming downwards and attack. the lag stops no?
maybe there is a way to change the view range
You could change the Fog of War to Black instead of grey, or increase the density. This might cause the map to not load everything... only what's within range.
naw, actually if you just hold down a hotkey it keeps pressing it. But like the guy above u said, you can't hit two hotkeys at once. Also, you can't go to fullscreen mode and still use hotkeys on a unit. Meaning the default ui will still be there.

I've tried that, it doesn't help. Far clip on the camera however, would achieve the effect you're looking for.

@LordFelco:
Take out the P in TPS and most of the lag should dissipate.
With hotkeys there is no way to catch multiple keys pressed at the same time.
That and no way to catch key-ups.

@TTFTCUTS: Go

Graphical lag can be solved easily. Look at
Action - Camera - Set Camera Object Property - Property - XXX
You can manipulate things such as Depth of Field, Fall Off, Clip Plane, etc
The other lag (delay from button presses due to server queries) is still being worked on.
