📋 About This Mod

----In the works since 2. 0 release, testing and tweaking, observing vanilla issues / odd delays, ideas of what would fit better to match the pace of skilled fps players inputs. While opening the doors to new avenues of combo potential.

--Originally designed to be played alongside Scissors Difficulty Overhaul. However that mod causes fps drops and is not updated, if you have performance issues, I do not recommend it atm.

#todo ( Enemy Overhaul, UI )

---Recommended ESSENTIAL mods:

CS Style Air Strafe Movement

No Fall Damage

Sprint Fix    Or    Movement Unclunkifier

--Recommended Optional:
