Player Laser Shoots at uneven intervals

As you can see from the image the laser does not shoot at a consistent rate.

I have this in my update:

	if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space)){
		InvokeRepeating("fireLaser",0.0001f,1f / fireLaserRate);
	}
	if(Input.GetKeyUp(KeyCode.Space)){
		CancelInvoke("fireLaser");
	}

And this in the method called to fire:

void fireLaser(){
	Vector3 playerLaserStartPos = transform.position + new Vector3(0,playerLaserStartPosY,0);
	GameObject laser = Instantiate(playerLaser,playerLaserStartPos,Quaternion.identity);
	laser.GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().velocity = new Vector3(0,laserSpeed,transform.position.z);
}

In this line of your code:

InvokeRepeating(“fireLaser”,0.0001f,1f / fireLaserRate);

Remove the 1f / fireLaserRate and just use fireLaserRate (which I am hoping is just a float you specified in the beginning of your code).

Your final code for that line should be:

InvokeRepeating(“fireLaser”,0.0001f, fireLaserRate);
