Speeding up Keyboard sending

[ScriptKiddie 0]

ive been working on a simple program that executes moves for streetfighter, ive noticed when autoit types that it types extremely fast but when doing the moves on street fighter theres a half a second delay between the moves when theres no sleep any help on improving the time?

also i know i posted this in my other thread but i figure since its a different topic i could post in a diff thread

Perhaps one of the following will help:

1. Window related functions are controlled by WinWaitDelay (default is 250 ms). When doing alot of window functions, adjusting this can really speed things up.

2. Send is controlled by SendKeyDelay (default = 5 ms)

3. Some Mouse functions are controlled by the function's speed option.

[therks 16]

Opt('SendKeyDelay', 5)

"Alters the the length of the brief pause in between sent keystrokes.

Time in milliseconds to pause (default=5). Sometimes a value of 0 does not work; use 1 instead."

Well I thought of that, but since the delay is 1/2 second's I assumed he didn't change that.
