How to toggle a key?

[boiler]

No, as I said, holding the w down doesn’t cause it to repeat, and waiting for the release of the physical key has nothing to do with it. Also as I said, you need to have it send the keystroke over and over until you toggle it off. You could do that by turning SetTimer on when toggled on and turning it off when toggled off. Similar to earlier in this thread:

Code: Select all

*$w:: {
	static toggle := False
	SetTimer () => Send('{Blind}w'), 100 * toggle := !toggle ; use lower number for faster spamming
	SoundBeep toggle ? 1500 : 500
}

@prz Boiler is right, i was wrong about the quotes.

That was already provided back at this post. Your game apparently doesn’t accept the virtual keystrokes, though. My latest post was in reply to prz, who apparently want a w key clicker.

@prz Your quotes are out of place if you’re trying to send “w down”… the whole expression needs quotes around it to be included in the send and then each other part that is the expression that isn’t sent but contained within needs extra quotes to remove them… it’s complicated and you’re probably better off putting “w down” in if and “w up” in else.

I can’t test this right now, but it would be something like this:
Send("{Blind}{w " ((KeyDown := !KeyDown) ? "down" : "up") "}") ” ”
I think the two at the end are needed.

I'm not sure anything is wrong with how he structured it -- just that he needed it to send multiple keypresses instead of holding it down. But this demonstrates the result of his Send by putting it in a MsgBox instead:

Code: Select all

KeyDown := False
MsgBox("{Blind}{w " ((KeyDown := !KeyDown) ? "down" : "up") "}")
; result is: {Blind}{w down}

@prz
This is auto walk I use in some games:

Code: Select all

XButton1:: {
    If !GetKeyState("w", "L") {
        SendEvent("{w down}")
    } Else {
        SendEvent("{w up}")
    }
}

I have it on the extra mouse button so I can use W normally. It's true that testing in NotePad will only send one "w" but in the game, you continue to run.

maybe the space repeater is too fast?

Code: Select all

clik := () => Click()
Lalt::
+Lalt::
RCtrl::
+RCtrl:: {
 Static on := False
 If on := !on
      SetTimer(clik, 50), clik()
 Else SetTimer(clik, 0)
 KeyWait 'Ctrl'
 Send '{Ctrl up}{Shift up}'
}

Im also trying to make left + right click click simulatnously. DO i add right cliuck to the top line?
