Is there such a thing ?

I believe there is away to send click orders to the server faster than the conventional "click" , "wait for blue scroll thingy", "click again".. procedure...

I expect this is the case as I was recently disabled while online (twice in 10seconds), with a player , who according to my calculations would have required 50-60 shots to disable me.. and he did that in less than 10s... Now I know people can click fast, but I'm not sure that the game server can handle 50 clicks in 10s.. or maybe it's just my internet connection which is slow...

If this autofire function is useable by some.. then others are at a disadvantage, as base battles, PvP and NPC elites would become so much easier (faster) for some...

It sounds like your connection.
Often I will never see the blue bar, and 4-5 clicks a second I think is definitely possible.

EDIT: now that i know who you are talking about i think your stats/math is off.
did you use actual spy probes?

Off topic rant.

I hate you, just saying

I have one of the better possible net connections in Australia, and I have never had a blue bar free experience while playing gl. I doubt I ever will. I often get out damaged hitting bases by people with literally half my attack...

On topic content.
And as to op, remember that you only get an alert and update when something
(Such as energy or shields) ticks over, do its possible he got lucky on his timing and attacked right after your last update, leaving you with minimal warning

Rapid clicking is an extreme issue when playing Galaxy Legion through your phone.

Loading times are often longer, and tapping on the screen too fast makes the browser zoom in/out, effectively slowing you down where every second could be critical to success.

Of course the zooming issue is a phone issue which can be fixed by altering your settings, but the loading time can't.

Also, my first thought was that someone else was hitting you at the same time. Therefore lowering your hull way faster than if he was doing it alone.
