Mouse movement via keyboard feels too slow / lacks acceleration

Open MattOrmianek opened this issue 5 months ago • 0 comments

Description: When using Scoot to move the mouse via keyboard, the movement speed is too slow for practical use, especially over larger distances. The lack of acceleration (i.e. gradually increasing speed the longer a key is held) makes it inefficient to move the cursor across the screen.

Expected Behavior: • Cursor starts moving slowly for precision. • Speed increases the longer a key is held, enabling fast travel across the screen.

Current Behavior: • Movement speed is constant and slow. • Holding a key doesn’t result in faster motion.

Suggested Solution: Implement a basic acceleration curve: • After X milliseconds of holding a key, increase the movement speed incrementally. • Reset acceleration when the key is released.
