Quick switch, it doesn't work?

Great that you finally decided to add native function to switch to the last weapon. It's just... it doesn't work.
When I first tried it it toggles back and forth one time before switching to the previous weapon for some reason.
Then I tried it in explore mode and it does nothing but spams this unnecessary message in the console:
Another thing:
Please make it switch to pistol by default, not the axe. Having to press 2-1 every time one spawns _will_ get tedious.
ANOTHER thing I just noticed: it stops working if you build something.

Thank you for this report, investigating now.
Edit: out of curiousity are you holding down the button or quickly tapping it?
I've noticed its sensitive to being held down, which should be fixed anyhow.
Update: I cannot reproduce quick switch failing - other than building (which is reported)
What are your bindings?
Your answers will help greatly, thank you.
It happens for any input, mouse or keyboard.
It does swap to the correct weapon, it just toggles back to the previous one before doing so. There's an extra swap.
Because that's all it is, just a visual hud glitch with prediction.. but quick swap still works..
Please confirm : is there any input that you bind where quick swap does not complete successfully?
It happens for any input, as I said. It performs the quick swap twice. It is more than a visual glitch in the weapon selection gui. Interestingly enough it doesn't occur every time on a listen server. Only about 1/4 of the time when quick switch is used. If I join an active public server, it happens every single time.
There is a visual flicker of the original weapon that occurs when switching, correct?
This has been occurring for a long time when typically switching weapons, and should be only occasional even then.
Confirm: It still does not effect the timing of switching weapons, or prevent the previous weapon from actually being switch to, correct??
All those switches are just from pressing the quick swap once between breaks. I swapped to pistol manually.
