Send key combination using HKN

[oeg91]

I've been trying to get this for days. I want to broadcast shift+space to my boxs, but isnt working (i use those keys to descent while gathering herbs).
This my script.
Im not sure where i should add the LShift+Space keys. I would like if anyone of you can edit my script and add those keys, or show me a guide to learn how to do that specifically.

You'd define it as a movement key as you want the keypress to be held by HKN while the hotkey is pressed. You'll also need to define Lshift to be a modifier key before it can be used as such in the script.

These are the 2 relevant documentation pages:

http://www.hotkeynet.com/ref/usekeyasmodifier.html

http://www.hotkeynet.com/p/movement.html

Note that you don't actually need to be sending Shift+Space to the clients. You can have that be the hotkey that you press and have HKN just send Space.

LShift is already a modifier.


Empty hotkeys were found.

Thanks for the repply.
Im not sure what do you meant, but i try to add this:

Disregarding empty hotkey: <Hotkey LShift Space>
The first error just says that Lshift is already a modifier key. I was under the impression that Hotkeynet did not have "default" modifier keys, but perhaps it does since there definitely isn't a double definition for Lshift to be a modifier in your config.

The second error is due to the hotkey you made on the very last line being, as HKN tells you, empty... You've defined a hotkey (not a movement key) of Lshift+Space. But that hotkey has no actions tied to it.

I would probably just try adding this to the the config you first posted:



<MovementHotkey ScrollLockOn LShift Space>
<SendLabel w1, w2, w3>
<Key Space>
can't test this currently, but I believe it should work. ( I assume all your characters have Space bound to jump/fly up)

I couldnt make it work, but i change the descent settings on wow for T and its working. Thanks for the help :D
