Keyboard Input Lag Fix

🎯 About this fix

The keyboard input lag issue that many players are experiencing is caused by a bug introduced in **socialclub.dll version 2.3.3.1**, which Rockstar will likely fix in a future update. This is a simple temporary solution.

The root of the problem lies in the changes to the **UpdateConnectionState** function. It now uses `INetworkListManager::GetConnectivity` instead of the previous `InternetGetConnectedState`, but this implementation is incorrect and can cause delays when handling keyboard events (especially when the game window is not in focus). This fix works around this issue by returning the checking logic to its previous implementation (keeping changes as minimal as possible) until Rockstar releases an official fix.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
