Ticketnummer: #1386

controller.setTypingDelayFactor();

Adjust the speed of the typing delay by setting a factor. The typing delay determines the time that the bot takes, to reply to a message. By default, the factor is set to 1, using a predefined calculation for the typing delay, that takes the message length into account. In order to increase or decrease the typing delay, the factor can be changed. For example, the default typing delay can be doubled by setting the factor to 2.

For example:

// double the time of the typing delay
controller.setTypingDelayFactor(2);

@schmitzl I think that since this only affects the web adapter, it should be part of that file, not in Core.

I try to avoid putting anything in core that doesn't apply to all platforms.

Can you define the function and variable in Web.js instead?

Also, please add a note about this to the docs page for the web connector that is contained in this other repo
