Feature Request: Disable lock by double tap/click

Post by Grn Xn Hm »

I understand the spirit of the feature to "write in pen", but in a game of tenths of a seconds, I cannot think of a single time that I've intentionally wanted to use that. Conversely, when I have found that a piece suddenly won't budge, I realize it's because at some point I must have fat thumbed and the game read as a double tap (especially on the side by side Hotel heads.)

Can we make the double tap a toggle in the game option that can be disabled or just get rid of it outright?

Yes, I never used it and I dont tkink someone does.

I plan to switch to the old use of the double click : send back the character to their home.

I use it but rarely. I plan to increase it , it makes more sense in harder puzzles than easier.

However the ratio of when I used it and it helped me vs it was unintentional and lost me siginificant time would be at best 1:7 I guess.

Is there a difference way of programming to lock them? one that's not so technically susceptible for misclicks and perhaps also faster to perform.

Same. I used it but lost time because it was removed. But thank you for listening to users.

I used the lock too (on hard/extreme). Is there a way for users to choose to have it on/off or is it permanently going to go back to home now? Thanks!

Yes, I can try to add it as an option.

I'll work on it tomorrow.
