Summary	0001664: NPCs can break hit speed by moving in combat
Description	When moving near their target in combat NPCs can make nearly instantaneous attacks. This is with StayInRange active and PreHit inactive. The script found in the additional information link can be used to create conditions which will almost guarantee this bug but it will occur under other circumstances. My best guess as to what is happening is that when the NPCs move and their attacks are suspended they somehow loose their swing speed timer. When they finish their step they then finish the attack instantly. Thus by moving and attacking rapidly an NPC can reduce the delay between its attacks to practically nothing.
