I am having a problem with /sendkey up up not doing anything.
Here is a small .mac file I set up to test /sendkey

sub main
/sendkey up up
/return

the macro just ends.
Im not sure if im using the /sendkey wrong or whats up.

Uh, what are you expecting it to do?

Ok I got one working. Maybe someone could explain the /sendkey to me please. Does /sendkey up up - /sendkey up down - /sendkey down down do anything. The only macro I can get to do anything is /sendkey down up and that moves me forward.

Sub main
|*** This is where I set my locs and delay so I can run a bit away to test
/varset v70 $char(y)
/varset v71 $char(x)
/delay 5s

|*** I was just looking to get the right values here****

/1 $distance($char(y),$char(x))
/1 $distance($v70,$v71)

|***Just a simple loop where I was trying to get my char to run to a loc

:camprescan
/if n $distance($v70,$v71)<=20 /goto :end
/face loc $v70,$V71
/sendkey down up
/goto :camprescan

:end
/return

Thanks for everyones help. I really enjoy making macros :)

The stray . has been removed. It was a mistake on the cut and paste.

hey, is that a stray period I see in there?

Code: Select all

/if n $distance($v70,$v71).>=9 {

/sendkey <verb> <key>

"/sendkey down up" tells EQ that the up arrow key has been pressed (but not released).

"/sendkey up up" tells EQ that the up arrow key has been released.

Is the documentation unclear on this?
