Launchers are annoying! my (rift) AutoHotKey script

Is there anything more annoying than typing a password 5x and then having to move your hand to the mouse to click?
Ok yeah there are lots of things more annoying, but this week this particular annoyance was top of my multiboxing to-do list (more on this later).
AutoHotKey is a freeware scripting program that I've been using for at least the last six years to handle many custom tweaks to computer input. The number one thing I use it for is to open the downloads folder on my computer with "win D" and to send the date no matter what program I'm in with "ctrl D". It's a lazy mans (womans?) scripting language, but I've never seen any good reason to convert my simple scripts to perl or anything else more exotic.
You might have to change the coordinates for yourself.

This script must be run as administrator or else it cant see the isboxer launched windows (in my experimentation anyway)
Code:Coordmode, Mouse, Screen ; very important +`:: ; This part represents the hotkey, in this case shift ` { MouseMove, 1070, 579 ; Moves mouse to password box Click ; Clicks in password box to give it focus Send, RIFTPASSWORD{return} ; sends the password and then enter MouseMove, 1070, 763 ; moves to where the PLAY button will appear Sleep 3000 ; this is how long it takes for PLAY button to appear Click ; sends mouse click to PLAY button } return
Once "play" has been clicked, Isboxer will launch the next window in your set and you are free to repeat this sequence. Hypothetically you could string this together to repeat every ten seconds for fifty seconds, rather than pressing the hot key each time, but I'm just not personally comfortable with having it run that long and take over my mouse.
