Script Esc combined with Reload

[WeThotUWasAToad]

Hello,

Using Esc as the hotkey, how would you script Esc combined with Reload?

I recently began using the Reload command and it's a great addition to my AHK bag of tricks. I initially set it up with Esc has the hotkey:

Code: Select all

Esc::Reload

That works great but not surprisingly, it eliminated the normal function of the Esc key. So now what I'm after is to keep the Esc key as the hotkey for Reload but have it first execute its normal function. To do that I tried the following script:

Code: Select all

Esc::
Send {Esc}
Reload
Return

but that does not work either.

Is there a way to accomplish what I'm after?

Thanks

Code: Select all

~Esc::Reload
