Important news: a manul kitten was born

In video gaming, if you press and release a button within a 1-frame window, there are two possibilities.

• The press and release happen within the same frame.
• The press happens in one frame, and the release happens in the next frame.

Unless your framerate is extremely low, to the point where someone can distinctly tell when frames start and end, it's generally not possible to control which of the two outcomes you get. If the press happens near the start of a frame, the first possibility is more likely. If the press happens near the end of a frame, the second possibility is more likely. It effectively becomes luck which one you get.

So if your game has different outcomes for these two possibilities, then you won't be able to trigger the outcome you want consistently.
