AutoHotKey problem?

Hello there, im new to the dual-boxing thing. All I can say is that it has breathed new life into wow for me. I have never had some much fun. Im dual instancing on one pc. I am having a problem with autohotkey (i guess). If i push a key that does not have a macro/spell on my action bar but i have one on the clone the clone does not recieve the key press and the marco/spell on the clone action bar will not get pressed.

below is my script that i got from the autohotkey help forum and edited to fit my needs. i still need to look into it more and learn more about it.

Any help i do appricate, Thank you and this place is awesome

Hi,

Things to note about that script:
- : your follow macro should be bound to the minus key on your clone
= : your assist key should be bound to the equal sign

[code:1]#IfWinActive, World of Warcraft
~1::
ControlSend,,{1 down}{1 up}, ahk_id %idMain%
ControlSend,,{1 down}{1 up}, ahk_id %idClone%
return[/code:1]

The "~1" tells AHK to pass the "1" key through to the currently active window. The following two lines (ControlSend) will send the "1" key to the main and the clone windows. In other words, your main ends up getting the keypress twice if you have it active.

If you get a lot of "There is an action already in progress" messages then this is why.

Which hotkeys are you having trouble with?

If you're just using a hotkey you press once, like a normal hotkey, use the layout Space uses; if you want it to last as long as you hold it down(eg; for movement keys) use the E example's layout, though you can add in the extra line for %idMain% if you want, as my code will only work with the Main up front.

I see the layout you have alot, I'm assuming you used the editor program to make it, while I simply copied and pasted from other lines and tweaked in Notepad till it worked lol; either way, give the above layout(s) a shot, substituting your hotkeys and see if either of those works

There's also the possibility that WoW itself doesn't recognize it as a valid key and thus ignores it, as I tried to press alt+2(my assist macro on alt, Healing Touch on Druid/main window) while in catform on my druid and my alt didn't set follow, but I don't remember if I had simply forgotten to reenable my script or not lol
