Sprint bug?

**Cain** · 07-03-2006, 07:54 PM

Now and then, when I run the endurance meter to the bottom, I am unable to sprint even after the meter recovers, regardless of using "double-tap" or a dedicated button. It usually requires stopping or going prone to get it working again. Anyone else having this problem?

I'm sorry I can't be more specific, but it's random and I can't consistently force the error.

I found this when playing vanilla too. Though it's not as pronounced because of the short sprint meter. I notice it when coming off of a jump, or dropping down from an object... where I hold the sprint button down and it doesn't sprint. I just stop all movement, then start and sprint.

Yes, that happens to me too. You pretty much have to stop. It's not specific to TacMod though.

Happens to me, I'll press and hold shift and unable to sprint again, what I do is double tap forward or W or whatever. It works again. I never use W, or double tapping forward to sprint, only when this bug happens.

This is intentional in both vanilla and Tac Mod. You are required to let a certain portion of your endurance regenerate before you are able to sprint again. This setting is pretty low in vanilla (maybe 3 bars) and was raised in Tac Mod (maybe 5 or 6 bars).

Nah, this isn't the intentional effect. This is a bug. Sometimes you just can't sprint, in spite of the fact that you have full sprint. Other times, the sprint bar just stays empty, but goes instantly full when you start to sprint.

Oh, I haven't witnessed these things.

It's annoying sometimes, especially when you're trying to run out from under arty sent by perry to kill you....

yep definately a vanilla bug as I've had this happen in the past... as well as getting stuck in the "run" position unable to change weapons, shoot, or go prone.
