In fight.cpp go to do_kill there is a wait_state( 2 * sysdata->pulseviolence) just to do a kill. If you killed a mob in 1 -3 round then there was a pulseviolence. If it took 4 or more round to kill a mob then you could move immediatly after it died. But if you killed it in one round you had 2 round to wait before the move went in. https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/pause-after-a-mob-is-killed-before-you-can-do-another-action-4510/&p=21341#p21341 Tue, 8 Feb 2011 12:31:57 CST AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Sherm) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/pause-after-a-mob-is-killed-before-you-can-do-another-action-4510/&p=21337#p21337 AFAIK, other than lag, the only thing that adds a delay to players on killing(without using ANY skills) is the wait_state applied for pkills. Following the structure/cycle for the combat/killing there doesn't seem to be anywhere else, unless i'm overlooking it. I know in the SmaugFUSS it isn't present, and as far as I remember, over my years of playing SMAUG, never did. (also testable on standard smaug by repeatedly typing movement commands, you will instantly move upon target death) Maybe https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/pause-after-a-mob-is-killed-before-you-can-do-another-action-4510/&p=21337#p21337 Mon, 7 Feb 2011 16:31:19 CST AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Txzeenath) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/pause-after-a-mob-is-killed-before-you-can-do-another-action-4510/&p=21335#p21335 Nahh not talking about the use of skills during a fight, I could see this, if a skill was used right before the mob died, but when a mob dies there is like a 3 to 5 sec pause before you can do anything.

This can be modified in each spell via directly editing your spells in your file, or "sset <spell> beats <#>" [code] /* * waitstate */ WAIT_STATE( ch, skill_table[sn]->beats ); [/code] the above is just an example, the wait_state based on a skill's "beats" is https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/pause-after-a-mob-is-killed-before-you-can-do-another-action-4510/&p=21321#p21321 Fri, 4 Feb 2011 16:35:43 CST AFKMud Support & Development nobody@example.com (Txzeenath) https://smaugmuds.afkmods.com/topic/pause-after-a-mob-is-killed-before-you-can-do-another-action-4510/&p=21320#p21320 Been trying to find the section of code to lower the pause after a mob is killed. This wait seem extremely long. Can anyone point me in the right direction.
