If you install with npm i git+https://github.com/octalmage/robotjs
instead of npm i robotjs
the issue is bypassed.
Thank you, it's a good idea!
Removing the Sleep entirely causes the typeString to sometimes skip double occurances, in the words like: "Annoying" -> "Anoying" or "soon" -> "son"
I found that changing the values to border Sleep(DEADBEEF_RANDRANGE(11, 22) resolves this issue

This didnt install for me, i had to switch to python2.7 i assumed, and changed the PATH. But this didn't work either and gives me the following error. Any suggestions?

Hey, I really approciate for this package, but I would like to see the following fix in the release. I was need to fork the repository and use npm link to reach this fix, but I would like to keep updated this package in the future.
Best regards, Richard

tapKey uses toggleKeyCode which calls WIN32_KEY_EVENT_WAIT once for a key and twice for a key with modifiers and therefore it can generate an additional delay of max 250ms. i dunno why there is a extra sleep call. i forked the repository and removed it and it works fine. < 2ms per call instead of 300ms +
