Yeah, we're aware that some people are upset with the changes here. I will say that the current behavior where the sprinting is disabled is actually vanilla behavior, though I've found that on many other servers, this is actually not inline with what you'll see on vanilla. We'll be looking into this
The reason it is the way it is now was actually due to another fix we put in
I don't think I have to add anything else.it was an unintended "fix" that came out of another fix I had put in to resolve another bug
