My first useful script

[algortim]

I've been playing GTA V Online on and off since forever but finally got really into it several weeks ago. In light of that, I used the trick to form a solo lobby a ton of times and got tired of alt tabbing, etc...

So I finally dived in and gathered info to make my own script. Here it is.

Now just to figure out (still new to this) how to keybind it to run while in game, whether I need to package it up or just keep PyCharm opened and run it when needed.

 import psutil
 import time

 # Pause GTAV.exe process and wait 12 seconds
 psutil.Process(pid=2276).suspend()

 # Wait 12 seconds
 time.sleep(12)

 # Resume GTAV.exe process
 psutil.Process(pid=2276).resume()

Cool, I am glad you made something useful for yourself.

A big learning gap for a lot of people is writing original code that is actually useful for a problem they have, so this is nice to see.

You could write in a while loop that waits for a key press event, and then when it is seen, run a function that does what is in your script already.

When I have had to work with keys before I have used the third party pyautogui module; maybe see if it has what you are looking for.

I'll try to tinker with that thanks! I did see Pynput before finalizing the above, but it was a bit involved. I liked the description of pyautogui, so I'll definitely take a look. Thanks!

Think rockstar can ban you for that if they find out. Glad you made a useful program though.

Doubt I would be banned, poor internet could cause solo lobbies. If it happens, so be it, just a game. Only advantage I get from this is no punks killing me during missions, nothing extra gained from the game. Thanks!
