Tapping/zh

Tapping 是一种短时间(通常是1刻)按下按键的技巧。

它移动了较短的距离，有助于将玩家置于最佳位置进行跳跃。

最常用的拍子是 Shift tap、Walk tap和 Air Shift tap。虽然 Sprint tap 大多时候不会用，但它很有用，并且不比其他常见的 taps 难。

• Shift tap : 潜行时（即按住shift），按前进键 1 刻。
• Walk tap : 按前进键 1 刻。
• Sprint tap : 按住疾跑键时，按前进键 1 刻。
• Air shift tap : 潜行时跳跃，在半空中按前进键 1 刻。

应用

• A backwalled 1bm 4b requires 1-3 taps from the back to be possible with only running momentum.
• An easy setup for 3bc 1bm backward momentum is to Walk tap then Shift tap from the front.
• A good strat for 3bm jumps is to perform 2 Shift taps from the back, and run for 2 ticks before jumping.

Analysis of common taps

Distance of common taps in 1.8

When the forward key is released, the player will continue moving for a short time, then stop due to Momentum Threshold: their X and Z speed will decrease until their absolute value is smaller than 0.005, at which point they are set to 0 and the player will finally stop moving in that direction.

Differences between 1.8 and 1.9+

In 1.9+, the momentum threshold has been lowered to 0.003 (down from 0.005). This makes all common taps longer by 1 tick, except the air shift tap which is extended by a whole 6 ticks.

Therefore, tap strats are radically different in 1.9+.

Nomenclature

There isn't really any existing way to describe a tap strat, as most strats are simple enough to write in full. Players will often say, for example, "1 shift tap, 1 air tap backwards". For more complicated strats, we can use the following nomenclature.

First of all, let's abbreviate the 4 different taps we will be using : S=Sprint tap, W=Walk tap, s=Shift tap, a=Air shift tap.

Then we can use the following syntax : [Forwards taps]-[Backwards taps].

For example, "1 walk tap backwards, 1 shift tap, 2 air shift tap" would become "s2a-W" (s for shift tap, 2a for 2 air shift taps, W for 1 walk tap).

The order in which the taps are done does not matter, as long as you don't do them in a too quick succession.
