When using the player command to use a bow or crossbow continuously the player will not fire the crossbow/release the bow. The same problem occurs with tridents.
Running on Carpet 1.4.40.

well, you have to stop drawing them in infinity and release them at some point, right?

Seems like they should shoot after drawing, every other use. Unless this would break functionality of some sort.

It's just simulating constantly holding down the right mouse button, it wouldn't shoot and reload if a player did that.

yeah, just after use continuous, do use once for shot, or use continuous for shot and reloading.
