[Showcase] QuickMagick - A Magicka AutoHotkey Script Generator

[Jack5500]

What is it?

We programmed this tool because we wanted to create
something for Magicka players, who don't want to type
in a long spell every time they want to use it and
are not familiar with handling AutoHotkey.
Our goal was it to make the creation of AutoHotkey
scripts as fast and easy as possible.
We hope you enjoy QuickMagick!

Same here, there wasn't the usual "how to" text sheet with the app, that might be helpful. I googled around myself to figure out about where the AHK file is supposed to go and I created a file and put it in the magicka file and the binds that I made didn't work, so yea a bit of how to would be great, and thanks for this ! having to continually punch in all those combinations for spells gets confusing in the heat of battle lol !

It's pretty simple actually.
1. You download Autohotkey & isntall it.
2. You launch the Generator
3. Press a key on the virtual keyboard the generator shows and select a magick it should assign the key to. (can be done with multiple keys ofc)
4. Build your file via File -> Save As.. (i.e.)
5. Doubleclick the file the was just created (messagebox shows where)
6. Launch the game and start playing
7. press the key you assigned ingame and the script will automatically cast the spell you assigned to the key (Step 3.)
8. Beat Cthulhu with ease

Doesn't work properly, I set it as instructed, for example set Teleport to 1... If I type 1 in say a text box, it propely executes QSD but in game it only does QS...
I tried editing the script and the only workaround I could find was to duplicate some of the keys to say SendPlay QSDD... Then it would properly send QSD...
Very weird.

We experienced that too. But it happens about 10% of the time. So the "fix" you brought up, wasn't worth it. Like I said, it works for 90% of the people

Maybe you could just hire someone to play the game for you so you don't have to play it.

I encounter this issue in lots of games I try to use AutoHotkey for. The solution I came up with was to use a loop to parse the list of keys I wanted to send, so I could tweak the delay until it worked flawlessly and smoothly.

Here's an example of what I mean, this obviously isn't for Magicka, but you get the idea, it spits out 1235678901:

spamkeys = 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9,0,1
Loop, parse, spamkeys, CSV
{
	Send %A_LoopField%
	Sleep 50
}
