hi what im looking for press a combination of keys + numbers to enter desired number to variable inside code,

example lets say ctrl+alt is hotkey, and while im pressing these, i press 5-3-3-9-9-1 than my variable would be 53.991 without exited fullscreen

i can make a assembly code for smiliar to this
first declare a variable and add 10 keys for numbers
secondly, another variable and hotkey to add number to total number
thirdly another, another variable, hotkey for set multiple total number variable by 10

but it takes too many keypresses and sonetimes hotkeys would be active multiple times on single press,
second problem about this approach, code must runs between each hotkey press, for some codes its not possible.


is there another way with lua or else?

I guess I would try GetAsyncKeyState(...).

At some point I complained to Dark Byte that I'd need more hotkeys for speedhack than just the default 5.
He told me there's a way to extend the built-in hotkeys, but I never took the time to research it.

yes, use a hotkey looking for ctrl+alt and once triggered start a new thread in which you do a almost constant loop checking isKeyDown for 0 to 9

then after getting 5 keys handle the value and quit the thread

maybe use speak() to let the user know the key got handled
and add a delay after handling a key (e.g imagine how to type 10000)
