Hotkeys Help

[weasel127]

I tried using HotKeySet for the normal keys A,S,D,F,G,and H but it wouldn't work. Is there another way to do this without using HotKeySet? I'm trying to make a script that will send a series of Keys after a hotkey is pressed, but I can't find a way around this. If I use the F1 - F12 keys, it will be confusing to use (since pressing the key above it will activate the key combination to use, which in this case would be to send a series of Z,X,C,V,B, and N keys).

Example:

HotKeySet("{A}", "ForwardAttack")

I know this doesn't work, but is there a way to set a letter key onto a hotkey?

Sure, by dropping the curly brackets, which are only used for special characters.

HotKeySet("A", "ForwardAttack")

Edit : note that when using uppercase letters, it's required to press Shift too.

Oh, it works. Just wondering, but why do you need to press Shift?

By using "a" you don't have to, but when you use "A" you do. Case-sensitive..

Just use "a" instead.

Oh, didn't realize it was case sensitive. Well the script works now. Thanks for your help!
