unfair, because ui is not responsive #12

The game is very interesting, but it is unfair, because the ui responsivenes is very bad (tested with http://spacewar.fikesfarm.com/spacewar.html).

Example situation: In a battle with klingons, I can escape a crossfire by warp 1, but sometimes when I click the "engage"-button, warp 1 is not initiated, even the slider is set to 1.

Same for any other maneuvers.

I need to click very quickly the ui controls for example to set the kinetic wepon, then amount, then angle, then direction, then fire. But in such a sequence, some click doesn't respond so I fail to defend, not due to a lack of ability, but because the UI doesn't respond.

This version http://spacewar.fikesfarm.com/spacewar.html is considered old. Try to reproduce the error by downloading the code / installing Leiningen and run: lein run in game main folder.
