Well big thx for actually spending time for implementing and maintaining it.
I would totally understand if you scrap it again if the gameplay suffers from it.
Better no api then a lagging one.

Note that the other two keyboard RGB implementations have zero issues with performance. It's the REST API that SteelSeries provides that's an issue; it's just a slow way to do it over a DLL like the others.
I had to do a bunch of work-arounds to keep all of the slow API calls in another thread to not block the main game logic. Normally that isn't an issue... but I guess it is for SteelSeries stuff.
Thank you very much for the fix! You guys are a fantastic dev team!
