Trouble with modifiers.

[Odox]

So I recently got into MultiBoxing and I am using HotKeyNet. I have a decent understanding of how the basics work but when it comes to modifiers, I can't seem to get it to work properly. What I am trying to do is send Ctrl + key pressed to both windows so that I can access a second bar. I've managed to do individual keys that caused an end result of Ctrl + Specified Key ( For instance. If I press K it sends Ctrl 1).

Code I am currently using

 <KeyList It A-D,F-P,S-Z, 0-9, Numpad0-Numpad9, Esc, Space, Plus, Minus, F1-F12 except W, A, S, D>

<Hotkey ScrollLockOn It>
<SendLabel w1, w2>
<Key %Trigger%>




<Hotkey ScrollLockOn Shift It; Alt It; Ctrl It;>
<SendLabel w1, w2>
<Key %Trigger%>

Another thing I am wondering is does anyone have any advice for repositioning the Slave so it faces the mobs. I'm playing mages and using Interact with target tied to my assist macro but mages don't go into melee so she ends up sideways half the time.

I'm guessing by the 100+ views and no replies, that no one knows how to do what I am asking. So I'll ask another question. Am I able to do this in ISB?

Most people do not use Hotkeynet these days, so getting answers is rather hard sadly. Personally I am usually just too tired when I finally get to sit down to start troubleshooting stuff on a program I don't use anymore.

I went ahead and dowloaded it again just for this kind of stuff...

So... You just want to be able to use Modifier+*KEY* right?

If so, couldn't you just do:

<Hotkey LCtrl 0-9>
<SendLabel w1, w2>   /// I'm testing this on 2 clients, edit to match your config
<Key %Trigger%>

That seems to work just fine to me, unless I'm not understanding what you wish to do.


As far turning your slaves towards an enemy, you could make a hotkey that on KeyDown send your ingame Interact With Target keybind and on KeyUp sends S (or whatever you have backpeddle bound to). If you have Click to Move on, your toon would start to move towards the target until you release the key. Getting the timing on it right might take some practise, to get it down to where the toons faces the enemy but does not move too much. Or alternative you could have keys for keyboard turning.

And yes, ISB could do all of this as well naturally.


**EDIT**

And with a bit of googling I did this:

<KeyList MyKeys 0-9, Q, E>
<Hotkey ScrollLockOn MyKeys; ScrollLockOn Alt MyKeys; ScrollLockOn Shift MyKeys; ScrollLockOn Ctrl MyKeys>
<SendLabel w1, w2>
<Key %Trigger%>

That has all modifier keys working for fine for me through a keylist for my 1-9, Q and E keys

Sorry. I should have mentioned I solved my slave facing issue by doing more or less what you suggested. So ty =)

You're second code is almost exactly the code I provided that hasn't worked unfortunately. What I am trying to do is have 0-9 work as sending 0-9. Then also have modifiers+ 0-9 that send as the modifier+ 0-9. Basically the way my UI is set up is I have a basic 12 slot bar keybound with 0-9,+,- Then I have it paging using ctrl,alt or shift to a secondary 12 slot bar.

I'm just trying not to change up my playstyle a hell of a lot but I have been looking into making macros and round robin set ups if I can't do the paging. If that doesn't feel right then I'll bite the bullet and buy ISB.

Well, what I posted seemed to work fine. I only tried Ctrl and Alt modifiers though. Could I see your full script? Ofc take out any personal info if any is present.

First off I want to apologize for the late reply. My computer broke and I had to build a new one. Had to wait for my friend to work his magic on my old HDD to recover as much as he could. This is the code I used for HKN
