Simple Program Need Help
I need help with a simple program. I am trying to play FF8 on the computer and for those of you who are not fimilar with it, there is a part in the game where you need to press a button as fast as you can and get stronger. Now this is done basicly every single fight in the entire game. Anyway usually with a keyboard you can just hold down a key and it will repeat itself. As i understand, the keydown action. Well, in the game, it only reads that as one point, key press. This is my first time posting on this forum, and i cannot find a program like it anywhere on the internet, but i found others intrested in it. I will continue to try and figure out a way to do it myself. Any help would be nice.

no it is a single player game, ff8, if you are fimilar with it. The idea is that everyime you get into a fight, you can boost your attack based on how many times you can press the letter A. When i owned this game on playstation, i managed to get around 150 with a regular controller. When i purchused a turbo controller, i averaged 250, which was the max. The range was 75-250. An unfair advantage over the game, yeah a little.

so i had another idea, maybe this would be easier. When i need to press the button, it wont work if i hold it down. So, since A wont read by just holding it down, could we somehow shift the input from a different charitor, such as the letter F?

inside a timer, put:
sendkeys.send("A")
emulates the user pressing A on the keyboard
set the timer interval to greater than 20ms (gives 50 presses per second)
(you can set it to 1 and get 1000 a scond, but it might be unreliable)

okay that works good, all i need to do now, is find a way for it to run while another program is up.
