Can't jump very well in BM apparently

Have had a lot of trouble attempting jumps in BM. Don’t know if there is some sort of keyboard mapping issue, or something else. It should not be as difficult as it is for me. Press ‘w’ and then ‘space’ should let me jump forward,
yet (Freeman) is not able to make even the simplest jumps. Very frustrating.

We have had some of these “…can’t jump…” threads already. <- No offence!

Have you tried crouch jumping (Ctrl + Spacebar) or using SHIFT to sprint while jumping?

It works just fine for me…no issue whatsoever.
hope you find a solution soon
