So, using AHK (autohotkey) I was changing Caps button function and made it work as ctrl. Is there any fully legal way to do the same since I am playing my main account with t6 characters and stuff and dont want to get banned for using soft like AHK which can be considered as bot.

As far as I understand, if you walk away from your computer AHK does absolutely nothing. Botting (AKA automation) allows you to be away from the keyboard and it plays for you. Therefore AHK is not botting.

"Just because you can, doesn't mean you should." - AHK CAN do it but if you don't you're not gonna get in trouble lol

yeah but the thing is that I would use the software which might be considered as bot and one day I might get ban for using 3rd party software

Again... third party software is NOT the issue... it's what you do with that 3rd party software.

Don't let the fact that some of us steer clear of AHK dissuade you from using it... I personally don't use it because KC is so much easier to use. Some of us stay clear of it because it CAN be used to do things that are against the TOS. If you DON'T do those things you should be fine.

As far as another way of doing what you claim.... yeah... can't help you there... maybe a little google action is in order.

Actually if what you want is to have the control key where the caps lock key is just buy a happy hacking lite keyboard. It's already set up like that.
