I'm late to a party I've known about for 7 years...

Is it impossible to pump without the struggle only because of the button conflict? Because if it is, to me it seems possible for someone to still pump, with the help of a script/cheat, without actually using the bound button in order to avoid such conflict.

P.S. Lol, we turned this thread into some kind of an interview.

Its not possible to charge a pump before a struggle initiates. To charge a pump is essentially the same as to charge a beam. You can not charge a beam while you are controlling another beam. Meaning no PS/BS = no pumps.
