Make flag throwing easier

[AfterShockFF]

With the new flag hitbox and a good defense, flags can be somewhat stationary for extended periods, even when players touch the flag there is no guarantee the flag throw command can be given in the very short space of time before the flag is dropped again. Whilst we do want more staggered flag progression, its important that the flag does continue to move (even if slowly) rather than get stuck in one place for a long time.

In particular, it's a little irritating to have to spam the "throw flag" bind repeatedly, grab the flag, and then not throw it.

This would be solved by allowing players to instantly throw the flag when they touch it. There are two ways we could implement this:

1. Queue the flag throw command, so that pressing throw within 0.5sec of touching the flag will throw the flag when you touch it.
2. Change the flag throw command to be a "hold" button, so you can hold the key to instantly throw when you touch it.

There would still be depth in the decision as to whether to throw or not, since you cannot homerun or conc out with the flag if you throw it (given the "no-retouch" time).

#2 sounds like a good idea to me.

The second option seems a little too easy to me, because you essentially don't even have to think about it at all to get a toss. However, I think queuing the command is an awesome solution, that still allows for some user error and skill but makes it much easier at the same time. So, the first one get's my vote.

with alaswell said making it guarantee is taking way skill. solving the problem of that its a very finicky command which i have noticed is a good idea. making it a guarantee or automatic i don't like. voting for 1st idea.

Just fix the "kicked for spamming commands" when you spin a mousewheel with dropitems bound too fast and it'd be perfect for me :p
