Need some help with QMK

Posted this in Hasu's thread but figured it would get more exposure here..

Is there a way to reduce the delay for activating a modifier key when using dual-role (ACTION_MODS_TAP_KEY)? I currently have my left shift key activate caps lock on tap, and my caps lock key acting as Layer 1 key when pressed, backspace on tap.

I noticed there is a considerable delay when I try to activate shift or Layer 1. I type fairly quickly, so the delay is really messing up my workflow.

I attached my hex file in case I might have done something wrong. I've only been using the keymap editor below, still very new to TMK.

I think you can do what you want if you build from source. Here's the file"action_tapping.h" and it looks to me like you can change some values here to change the delay. I don't know anything about the keymap editor.
