use a key on a keyboard without "hitting" the key

[Ava.Gabe.182]

So my friend is playing some computer game .. and he wants me to make a program that would "hit" a hey on the keyboard without actually hitting it. this is so he can play the game without being on the comp.


any suggestions on how to do so? D:


Thank youuu

umm im not sure if this is what you mean but on any windows OS there is an on screen keyboard to use

Do you mean an autoplayer, or like to tunnel it from another computer?

[Ava.Gabe.182]

i mean i don't want to be at the computer while the key is being pressed.

[DtY]

So what's going to trigger it? Someone pressing a key on another computer, something else, or like automatically plays the game?

[edit] I'm asking because there might already be a program that does what you want. I'm not sure how to simulate a key press in Turing.

[Ava.Gabe.182]

i guess automatically
and this doesn't have to be done in Turing .. im just most familiar in it so i posted it here.

I would suggest a long pole with a rubber finger on the end.

If you want to start a macro, that would loop a certain Mouse+Keyboard list of events (like cheating in a video game -_-). Then I guess SCAR would work. Never tried it myself, though I've heard of it when playing a game that got ruined by it.

Truefully, I have no idea how safe this program is, so your on your own.

Scripts seems to be coded in PASCAL, which is cool.

If you're doing this for what I think you are doing it for (ie, preventing yourself from going AFK while playing an MMO), then in almost all cases, this is considered a breach of the ToS/EULA. Just so you know.

Don't tell me you actually read the EULA

I suggest looking up AutoIt or try using the Robot class in Java..

If you want to make a program that plays a game for you, I suggest you get the Scar program.

Most games I know regard this kind of activity as cheating.
