"i gotten 5 hits 3 in a row in 20 hits the last 2 not missing" I'm having a little trouble untangling what you're saying here. Again, we're looking for a ratio, hits to swings. Do you mean you only hit 5 times out of 20 swings/attempts? If so, it sounds like your game is almost directly the opposite of what it should be ratio-wise. There should be some misses, but not 80% or more.
Unfortunately I don't think there's much I can do, since again I can't seem to reproduce the problem on my end. If you want, you're welcome to record some gameplay of it happening with something like OBS, toss it up on Mega or similar and send me the link. Might be able to see something we're missing. But if you don't want to go to the hassle, I understand.
Either way, I'll at least make a note of it and keep an eye out for anyone with a similar issue.
