Long tips are faster

AI reaction time increased to make it "more human"
AI should be a bit stronger against long serves/setter dumps

Patch Note 0.7.4.6 - Change defense / receive system
Hi everyone,
Little update to change the defense/receive system.
NEW SYSTEM
Long balls : instead of having to hold BACKWARD and press A, you just have to press BACKWARD
Middle balls : no change (you press A to bump)
Short balls : instead of having to hold FORWARD and press A, you just have to press FORWARD
I know some of you could prefer the old system but it makes things way easier in the long run with this new system especially for fast plays where having to press A was a mess. It will also avoid the "oh I pressed A before the arrow..." moments.
Have a nice day ♥ Joé
Patch Note 0.7.4 - Block remove hands
Hi everyone,
It seems to be a little update but having the AI to understand properly how the new mechanic works was tough !
