ENIGMA Development Environment

Hi there,

I'm working on simple object that responds to WASD input by moving. The only issue I have is that after a couple seconds of holding down a key, the movement and keystrokes start to lag - I've included a GIF to show what I mean. I've tried both code and blocks, and both of them yield the same output.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Creation code:

left_speed = 0
right_speed = 0
up_speed = 0
down_speed = 0


Step code:

if keyboard_check(ord('W')) {
up_speed = 5
}
else {
up_speed = 0
}

if keyboard_check(ord('A')) {
left_speed = 5
}
else {
left_speed = 0
}

if keyboard_check(ord('S')) {
down_speed = 5
}
else {
down_speed = 0
}

if keyboard_check(ord('D')) {
right_speed = 5
}
else {
right_speed = 0
}

x -= left_speed
x += right_speed
y += down_speed
y -= up_speed
