I'm glad I'm not the only one. There is certainly room for improvements. I run into the issues of the OP, in that there is a delay between pressing space and the jump if moving. If sprint is on you end up taking a two or three extra steps (there seems to be no set number), and whole walking one or two. It is extremely frustrating. Adding a ledge grabbing function would be very helpful, or even a boosted jump via force or rocket boosters. I understand that the datacrons are supposed to add a challenge, however there is a difference between a challenge and fighting the controls.
