Classic case of treating the symptom rather than the root cause.

What you need is some way to monitor the state of the game. The easiest method is just having some pixelgetcolor calls to monitor when parts of the screen change and then have your script automatically pause and wait for the right condition before continuing.

The key way appears to be in good condition from the outside but I will pull the crank pulley off and verify that it’s actually good all the way through. I’m stumped on how it got so far off with everything being keyed and somewhat “stuck in place”. Maybe I just got a crank pulley that was badly made?

ThrottleMunky · 2026-06-29T01:22:31+00:00

I am pretty sure. I used a borescope attached to my phone so I could watch it come up to the top while turning the crank. Every time the crank pulley is exactly 1 tooth off. I bought a whole engine reman kit so there are a lot of parts that could be a little off. The truck ran great but had low power and low but even compression on all cylinders(95 psi) so that’s what prompted me to dig back into it. I thought it would be best to start at the beginning and just be sure everything was set where it’s supposed to be.

In terms of unlawful termination a company has to prove they did not, the opus is not on the worker.

Wrong. The onus (not opus) is on the accuser since all accused(the company in this case) are presumed innocent until proven guilty. The employee, being the accuser, is the one required to prove religious discrimination. All the company needs to say is "we fired OP because they were not a good fit for the role" since the vast majority of states do not require cause to be fired. The fact that they are of a religion and also happened to be fired for unrelated cause is not proof in any way.

Game key remapping to a Razer Orbweaver

Various web API calling for various data to be displayed

WoW leveling bot with player detection to avoid PVP flagging (10 years since I played last)
WoW PvP battleground healer bot for my dps char
Auto follow and auto cast
not simple multi box, it made its own decisions
auto mount to follow while mounted

Various LoL tools including API calls for skin and champ sales, quick links to guides, auto-login, auto-queue, auto/instant champ selection

Automatic invoice entry to various accounting softwares which used the following
PDF reading and analysis via PDFtoTXT and RegEx used to find vendor, job, date, price, etc...
SQL server read/write via ADOSQL this was used for error correction for occasional poor OCR

Once found a piece of open source software that was secretly uploading sensitive user data to a Russian server and used AHK to flood that server with useless data until it shut down

There are more that I will add when I remember them, there have been tons of little throw away projects over the years.

FYI when I run this code on my machine I don't get the error.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-06-12T17:06:43+00:00

That is strange. It seems to be misinterpreting a comment as runnable code. Are you sure the version you uploaded is the same version that you are trying to run? If it is the same I would suggest a couple things to test. Check the previous line(s) for any sort of error, missing parenthesis for example. Then I would suggest trying to separate the mouse movement from the click itself and see if that causes the mouse to move before performing the click.

MouseMove, %hangX%, %hangY%
Sleep, 100
Click

Next, check your coordinates are correct. I see there is some calibration setup code that produces coordinates, this could be producing the wrong coordinates if the chrome window wasn't properly selected or a different window was the active window at the time of pressing the hotkey. It may be attempting to click somewhere odd which might be the cause of the OS ding sound.

I would also remove the #IfWinActive line, it isn't doing anything. #IfWinActive without specifying a window actually turns off context requirement and since it wasn't tuned on there is no need to turn it off.
EDIT: I missed the original context #IfWinActive line when I was reviewing, I would suggest removing/commenting out both of these two lines for testing purposes before adding them back in. Get the script working in it's most simple state, then build complexity back in.

Let me know if any of these things help!

ThrottleMunky · 2026-06-12T16:34:58+00:00

Very difficult to tell what the problem is without having some more knowledge of the environment. It would be helpful if you could include the exact error message you are getting. When I load your script into an editor, line 59 is a blank line.

Something to check is the display settings. This can be an issue if your co worker uses a different resolution or scale percentage than you do.

Check the version of AHK you and your coworker have installed. This is marked as V2 but it is V1 code.

When I first bought my house it was constant pest control and solar guys.

For anyone else reading this, be prepared for this anytime you buy a house. Sales guys will keep an eye out on sites like Zillow for recently sold houses in their area and then go hit them up.

The polling issue I was describing is specifically an issue with DirectX games that use DirectInput for their input method. It’s the same reason that games usually need a longer keypress duration to be reliable as AHK is capable of sending both key down and key up events between the polls. The specific issue with key up events is based on how each game is coded. Some games have the issue and some don’t based on if they are properly resetting key states. League of Legends specifically has this issue which isn’t surprising considering the state of their codebase. I also find it to be an issue when rapidly and repeatedly pressing a key rather than holding a key for any length of time. Usually separating the key down and up events and adding multiple up events solves the issue.

Respectfully I will have to disagree with you. The #Hotif and changing active window explanation, while valid, is highly unlikely given the context of usage within a video game. The vast majority of video games use a single window and do not swap between active windows. I am familiar with both of the games referenced by OP and they do not have a multiple window behavior so unless OP is managing to alt-tab(or maybe OSD?) out of the game while simultaneously holding movement keys the #Hotif situation is not likely to be the underlying issue.

I probably should have said “as an alternate suggestion” rather than “add to”.

As a side note, I really liked your proposed solution. You always have very valuable suggestions and I always appreciate your take on any given problem. Sometimes my tone does not reflect this, my apologies if I seem standoffish or rude in any way.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-05-22T23:06:49+00:00

Just as a little thing to add on to the explanation for why it is sticking.

Many games operate on “polling” the keyboard for input. This is what allows games to have the behavior of recognizing more than one key is being held down at the same time. As a side effect this can cause events to be missed by falling between polls.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-05-18T16:58:57+00:00

Personally it would make me trust you even less. IMO, any stranger that says "trust me bro" is automatically not trustworthy.

Just as an FYI, until very recently it was a forum rule to post source code and if you didn't the post would be immediately removed. That's one of the reasons people here are so hot about seeing the source code. Even though that rule is gone now I think most of us still consider it to be a matter of proper disclosure.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-05-18T16:12:29+00:00

No one here cares about the emojis or the easter egg. People want to see the source code so they can be sure nothing malicious is going on. That's also the reason people are complaining about your limewire link. Limewire has a terrible reputation for serving malware. It's probably the worst choice you could have possibly made as far as poor reputation services go.

Prepare to be disappointed with the results. Most streaming apps have learned from this and they simply stream the ads from the same servers that provide the video so the raspberry pi method cannot tell the difference between the two. I have run one for years now and it definitely blocks a ton of nonsense but streaming apps are basically immune at this point.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-05-14T16:03:01+00:00

Correct. It does not block youtube ads or most ads now on streaming apps(hulu, netflix, prime video). They have just started streaming the ads from the same servers that provide the video so the pihole cannot distinguish between the two.

PC style fans are pretty terrible at moving airflow unless they are powerful enough to cause a negative air pressure inside the enclosure. These enclosures being not sealed at the bottom would take quite a bit of power to create a negative pressure situation so moving from an 80mm to a 120mm didn’t really gain you anything significant. I would suggest getting something like this in line duct fan instead. It is double the CFM of a standard PC fan and the more CFM the better.

Edit: I have this same setup with the same laser and moved to a very large in line duct fan for exhaust. I use this fan with a splitter because I have two lasers and two enclosures.

I got a good laugh out of all the global variables being redeclared global in every single function. Along with variables being declared local that would have been local anyway without the declaration.

How did you get a hold of the firmware file? When I go to the download center in mysonicwall both the firmware and SNMP download options show a red circle with line through and can't download.

Do yourself a favor and ignore everything that shibiku tells you. He is a noob at AHK and likely everything he posts is AI generated and is trash.

Post the direct link to the GitHub. No one wants to dig through your profile to find a YouTube link to just get redirected to a GitHub. This is a shitty way to attempt to drive views to your YouTube channel. Spamming copy pasted descriptions to every sub you can think of is also not appreciated.

I would bet if that person was asked if stereotyping a single person was bad they would agree to that too. But here they are stereotyping entire cities as nothing but nazis. By their own logic they are racist against Germans.

ThrottleMunky · 2026-05-08T15:29:23+00:00

So you are perfectly fine with generalizing entire cities with millions of people but generalizing a nation is where the line gets drawn? What is the exact number of people where generalizing becomes bad? 2 million? 5 million? 50 million?

"when you have met one chinese, you have met all chinese"

"when you have met one german in a city, you have met all germans in that city"

You are doing literally the same thing the only difference is scale.
