The Sprint Delay

[EvermoreHD]

I am slightly confused on the mechanics of the new sprint delay. From my observations, sometimes the delay happens, while sometimes it doesn't. Additionally, the duration of the delay differs each time.

I have seen multiple theories, such as it having to do with your connection to the server, or being completely random. So, anyone know when it happens and the the cause of the duration?

I think its your connection but there is a very noticible difference between the regular sprinting and the 1.6.1 sprinting when you start doing parkour

They've already stated, it is a 1.6.1 bug and is to be fixed in 1.6.2.

I know. The purpose of this thread is to figure out the mechanics of the glitchy sprint.

Why does it matter, it is going to be fixed anyway...

Server-side sprint. That's all that needs to be said...

I see. So the delay lessens the better connection you have to the server? That's great to know!

It was probably Mojang's attempt to fix wobbly-sprint. Emphasis on attempt.

Too much server-side. I mean having it so, allows plugins like NoCheatPlus detect and stop sprint-hacks, but I don't think they took into account lag.

I honestly think its a bug with 1.6 update becuase it never had happened before in the 1.5.2 update but i also do think its something with the interconnection between the server and your internt but it really happens to me but i do find it a pain when trying to run away in a hurry and dieing becuase your sprint failed.
