Is this some kind of a bad joke??

-dunno, prolly window ends when one hits the ground
-the window is both clientside and then serverside iirc, with a wider one serverside but really bad ping would still prevent it I guess
-no, I think
-holding defend or attack prevents the roll, you have to release them; it's a remainder form the other dodge stuff but i'll leave it in; other keys shouldn't matter
-I think you have to send two game_key_clicked events within a time frame(200ms, client side, so ping independent) to trigger dodge and in this case roll; actually I dunno if that is just a 1->0 or fully fledged 0->1, 1->0 event; I might test it one day; so yes, when holding a or d you still have to double click it afaik; what about it
-I think it works on natural knockdown from horses and weapon,  doesn't work on nudge kds because I made it a custom anim, I might as well include it too though

Thanks for the answers Paul. +1 to you.

Also +1 to including the roll for nudge knockdowns. No reason why it shouldn't.

However there is not only a "too late" but also a "too early"(5%>kd anim progression>45%) that fucks up rolls so one has to get the timing right.

Doesn't the entire knockdown animation take like half a second anyway? Which would mean that reacting within the first 5% is impossible when human reaction times are rarely below 200 ms. Perhaps a little faster when talking reflexes but with double tap, I highly doubt it's humanly possible to be too early. Even if the animation takes a full second which I doubt, it's still 50 ms. I am just going to go with tapping as fast as I can.

Do you have a number for knockdown animation duration? Would be helpful to be able to put a number on the 45%.

There's a few different knockdown animations.

 ["strike_fall_back_rise", acf_align_with_ground|acf_enforce_lowerbody, amf_priority_reload|amf_priority_mount|amf_priority_equip|amf_priority_rear|amf_priority_striked|amf_priority_fall_from_horse|amf_priority_die|amf_accurate_body|amf_play|amf_restart,
    [1.7, "anim_human", 45400, 45453, arf_blend_in_2|arf_make_custom_sound, pack2f(0, 0.4), (0, 0, 0), 0.5],
  ],

  ["strike_fall_back_rise_upper", acf_align_with_ground, amf_priority_reload|amf_priority_mount|amf_priority_equip|amf_priority_rear|amf_priority_striked|amf_priority_fall_from_horse|amf_priority_die|amf_accurate_body|amf_play|amf_restart,
    [1.44, "anim_human", 45400, 45445, arf_blend_in_2],


  ["chamberkick_knockdown", acf_align_with_ground|acf_enforce_lowerbody, amf_priority_reload|amf_priority_mount|amf_priority_equip|amf_priority_rear|amf_priority_striked|amf_priority_fall_from_horse|amf_priority_die|amf_accurate_body|amf_play|amf_restart,
    [2, "anim_human", 45400, 45453, arf_blend_in_2|arf_make_custom_sound, pack2f(0, 0.4), (0, 0, 0), 0.5],

Well, it's true. Pulling off the roll is mostly a thing of muscle memory, timing and anticipational ability. Once you expect to get knocked down when fighting someone with a kd weapon, you'll be much better at getting the roll done in time. However there is not only a "too late" but also a "too early"(5%>kd anim progression>45%) that fucks up rolls so one has to get the timing right.

So basicly your saying set your macro right?

Since with this theory it is only possible with low ping imho. (Strategus battles)
