Request: When you start casting, make it stop character movement and autoface the mob

[darkstarpoet1]

Is this autofaces thing and stopping before casting really that hard? I'm just wondering cuz I've had no trouble
I don't know of it's cuz I'm a controller user or what tho.
But you don't HAVE to autoface if that's the impression you get. I think autoface is just meant so you don't get back attacked while casting.

no what they are using /facetarget for is basically nothing more than a stop button. it sends info directly to the server that you are stopped moving and you can directly start casting a spell instead of having the delay while the server figures out your position. all we were asking for is that for a controller user to add a battle mode where we could turn off face target as a key press and make it to where the start of the spell would be a stop.

this method would have a button on the controller to send the info to the server so we get the same delay as keyboard users get. right now there is a difference in response times for a controller user to begin casting spells compared to a keyboard user that actually has a button they can hit to begin instantly.

edit: facetarget is not just turning and facing a target. it tells the server you have stopped moving so you can instantly begin spell casting. we are using facetarget as just the use it has not actually the turning towards the mob. it's just the ability to say you are stopped as soon as you hit it instead of the delay from running.

a keyboard user can be running and hit facetarget and they stop running and turn so they can start casting instantly whereas the controller user runs and stops and then has to wait for the server to register it.
