Autohotkeys

Hey,

I just wanted to share what I do to help me play a little better. One of the biggest problems I had was I kept moving my hand from the letter buttons or mouse to the arrow buttons to shift the map; it slowed me down a lot. This same problem happened with the tactical map, where, for some reason, it uses the 0 button on the numpad.

I got the program Autohotkey to help me out. Basically, once you download it, just use a text editor (usually notepad), and save the file as a .ahk

Then just double click on the script whenever you want to use it (it'll run in the background). Also, mine is setup so that it only works when COH2 is on; that way, you can run it whenever, and it won't interfere with normal tasks.

My script is set up to rebind the keys so that shift wasd reflect all of the arrow buttons, and shift e opens the tactical map. That way, i can do all of those things without moving my hands around. (I also turned off classic hotkeys in COH2 and use the gridkeys).

This is the script I use if anyone is interested:

;Start of Script

SetTitleMatchMode, 2
#IfWinActive Company Of Heroes 2

+e::Numpad0
+w::up
+s::down
+a::left
+d::right

;end of script
