[MC-16761] Sprint does not happen straight away

On a server sprint does not happen straight after 'double tap' and instead commences about a second after. It also happens when fingers are taken off the forward key (W), the sprint FOV increase stays for about a second after the key has been released.

Seems to be dependant on lag. In our LAN server this is barely noticeable and not higher than in 1.5.2.

Daniel Holt 2013-05-29T10:00:41Z

That'll be Server (or client side) lag. What are your PC Specs and Server Specs?

Anon Ymus 2013-05-29T18:19:07Z

What server is this?

Ville Selkämaa 2013-06-02T15:58:13Z

No lag doesn't cause this. I have stable 60fps and my internet speed is stable and fine(optical fibre).
I have Windows 7 and Java 7. Both 64 bit

The problem was that this never happened before in 1.5.2. And now that this is happening only in a server, and in the snapshot. It me worried that it is a bug, or that sprint has been made server side.

Confirmed in 13w23b

This is still an issue in the 1.6 prerelease. Basic movement should be lag-free in the client, and not affected by a player's connection.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

It still happens in official 1.6.1 😞

Ville Selkämaa 2013-07-01T13:37:53Z

Yep I can confirm that this happens in 1.6.1. But the actual problem might be the fov. I think the sprint actually works fine but the fov is creating an illusion that the sprint comes with a delay.

Dawid Belica 2013-07-01T13:48:43Z

Yes, tested it now, only fov is like server side or there is really an error about delay or something.

Now it's impossible to do a parkour in a server... mojang should fix this

Connor Mitchell 2013-07-03T07:34:41Z

Only in multiplayer, depending on server ping

William Gabriel Baldovino 2013-07-05T09:39:44Z

When you sprint in Single Player,
You'll notice that there is a little delay of sprint after you double tap W.
And when on a server,
It becomes super delay...
It is a bug in the client not on servers.

Jason 2013-07-05T19:57:52Z

No, Sprinting is controlled by the server now. Single player runs as an internal server, so that is why there is a delay in single player.

William Gabriel Baldovino 2013-07-06T05:42:40Z

Oh yeah...
forgot about that...
Thanks for correcting me.
Good thing its fixed right now.
=)

Dennis Deev 2013-07-08T20:11:38Z

i do not like this because you can not do parkour on a server properly and it is just miserable

Anon Ymus 2013-07-08T20:14:21Z

Good thing that it is fixed!

Joshua Mack 2013-07-09T02:44:21Z

I am on multiple servers. Both vanilla and bukkit. And they still have this glitch in 1.6.2

Lord Sunday 2013-07-10T00:15:00Z

@Joshua Mack As far aqs bukkit goes, that MAY be because they only just got a build that will compile and actually run out for 1.6.2. I'm sure this is a future bug fix.
