Sweep attacks no longer trigger after a player has moved. A player must hit once while standing still, and then on their second attack a sweep attack will occur (assuming the user has still not moved).

Can confirm. In my experience, sweeping attacks rarely occur.

Reverted title, as the new title is incorrect, see the description for details.

Can also confirm. I even reproduced the issue with the attached video below. In the attached video, I used a sword with faster attack speed for demonstration purposes, and you may notice that the sweep attack does not work even while the player camera is being moved, in addition to the player movement. Additionally, when stayed focused long enough (i.e. not moving the camera and position), a sweep attack can be done once.

Can confirm as well. I thought this was a fluke on my end, but it does happen 'consistently'.
