Quote from: ropa on May 02, 2013, 09:31 AMI quoted you because you were struggling to understand how the script would benefit a 2 space user and somehow implied it would only work with 3.
I didn't imply anything, I was going out of the MI's post where he said that you don't release anything until the trick is done, which is false, at first you don't need to release the first space to press 2nd, but you still must physically release the 1st to press it again. if we have 3 spaces, we don't need to release anything at all, which complies with the MI's post.
I'm not implying anything but showing that the point #4 in the second part of MI's post is false.
in fact, replace the word "press" with "hold", then hold two spaces and try to press 1st space again while it's still physically held.
Two fingers holding the same button? huh..
Quote from: MonkeyIsland on May 02, 2013, 10:05 AMThe release of the first space: your release of space this time is not the same as the natural way. It has less value since the timing we are talking about is ruined at that point.
but it's still a release, even a microscopic one, which contradicts the point #4 of your post.
tl;dr: how MI should have explained the trick:
with 2 spaces:
Quote
1. Press and hold the first space key.
2. Release space key one
3. Press and hold the first second space key.
4. Release space key one.
5. Press first space key again.
6. Release space key two.
with 3 spaces:
Quote
1. Press and hold the first space key.
2. Release space key one
3. Press and hold the first second space key.
4. Release space key two.
5. Press and hold the first third space key.
6. Release space key two.
