AutoHotkey Community

Hello, firstly I would like to congratulate you and thank you for making such a wonderful, free program.

Secondly, I would like to ask please, if there is a way to set a delay between keys entered by the script in milliseconds?

I play CSS and the server requires that you type guns into chat in order to select your weapons. I would like to automate this by binding the entire process to the one of the two buttons on the left of my mouse (Razer Deathadder).

This is what I have so far:

XButton1::Send,yguns{ENTER}1393

This would work, but there needs to be a time gap between 'y' (brings up chat) being entered, 'guns' being entered, 'enter' being entered-lol, and '1', '2' and '3' being entered.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

This is how it looks, it seems to work inconsistently.. Not sure why.

XButton1::
Send,y
Sleep,5
Send,guns
Sleep,5
Send,{ENTER}
Sleep,42
Send,1
Sleep,41
Send,3
Sleep,48
Send,9
Sleep,39
Send,3
Sleep,11

Please use the code tags when posting.

Your inconsistency may be due to server load at the time of your request, therefore taking more than your allotted time between sending {Enter} and the next commands.

If I read it correctly, you are sending a series of commands that interact directly with the server, so issues such as ping and server load will effect how much delay would be required and you would have a fairly low consistency during the course of a single match.

Going off of your values, I would say your average response time is between 30 and 60ms. Try increasing the delays where the server has to respond until you have an acceptable success rate.

Thank you very much, trying your suggestion now! Why didn't I think about server response times before?!

Since you seem to be using some very small Sleep times I thought it'd be worthwhile to point this out:



So in those spots where you're using a very small delay it's meaningless to a certain extent. Also you can avoid stacking a bunch of Sleep commands in your script and condense things down if you use SetKeyDelay:

Haha!



Wow, thank you for the tidy script. That looks much nicer. Is there a way to set up multiple functions in the same script? For instance, can I also set up some bindings to the home, end and pause keys to control windows media player? Like for instance, if I wanted to go to the previous song using the 'home' key, whilst I am in-game, how would I go about doing this? I just tries what I thought would work, but it complained about the original script that I have already posted (am using the new one now). Then I want the 'end' key to act as trigger for next song. Then the same goes for 'pause', which will obviously be used to pause and unpause the music.

Thank you all so very much for your help.

If you have a multimedia keyboard you could do something like



Remember to add a return after your xbutton1:: code too if you're going to add this to your script.


Look in the help file under "List of Keys, Mouse Buttons, and Joystick Controls" for more media/hotkey information.


You can also do it with http://wmpkeys.sourceforge.net/.

Good luck.

In addition to that, how about sending a left mouse click?

I think it would be something like this:

XButton2::
SetKeyDelay, 50, 25
Send yguns{ENTER}13934
Send MouseClick LButton

The bracketed parameters are optional and the default is left. So all you really need is...

Thank you both very much!

Is it normal that executing one command seems to execute all in the list?

This is the script:

XButton1::
SetKeyDelay, 50, 25
Send yguns{ENTER}1393

XButton2::
SetKeyDelay, 50, 25
Send yguns{ENTER}13934{Click}
return

Place return after the first command
