Example HotkeyNet-script controlling 5 toons on different computers

This is a quick example-script i made, for running 5 bainshees. It’s only purpose is to show, how HKN can be used.

I’ve tried putting relevant comments in the script, but if you have any questions, feel free to drop me a comment 🙂

Here we go:

// Label syntax: <Label NameOfLabel Local/IP SendMode NameOfWindow>
// I have defined 2 labels for each toon; 1 with SendWin-sendmode, for pushing qbars etc., and one with SendWinS for sending <Text> commands (ex <Text /assist Randomname-Ywain1>)

<Label Bain1 Local SendWin “Dark Age of Camelot”>
<Label Bain1s Local SendWin “Dark Age of Camelot”>

<Label Bain2 192.168.1.101 SendWin “Dark Age of Camelot”>
<Label Bain2S 192.168.1.101 SendWinS “Dark Age of Camelot”>

<Label Bain3 192.168.1.103 SendWin “Dark Age of Camelot”>
<Label Bain3S 192.168.1.103 SendWinS “Dark Age of Camelot”>

<Label Bain4 192.168.1.106 SendWinSF “Dark Age of Camelot”>
<Label Bain4S 192.168.1.106 SendWinS “Dark Age of Camelot”>

<Label Bain5 192.168.1.107 SendWin “Dark Age of Camelot”>
<Label Bain5S 192.168.1.107 SendWinS “Dark Age of Camelot”>

// Now to the hotkeys
// To send your keys to specific toons, you’ll be using the command “SendLabel”. SendLabel has the following syntax: <SendLabel LabelName1[, LabelName2, LabelName3,…]>
// Like this:

<Hotkey Q>
<SendLabel Bain1, Bain2, Bain3, Bain4, Bain5>
<Key 1>

// Once i push Q on my keyboard, HKN will send 1 to all of my bains.
// I could also do something different on the toons:

<Hotkey R>
<SendLabel Bain1>
<Key 2>

<SendLabel Bain2, Bain3>
<Key 3>
<SendLabel Bain4, Bain5>
<Key 5>

// With build 208 you’re able to use the “Text”-command almost as if you pushed a qbar because of the new sendmode-mechanics.
// This opens up for uses like this:

<Hotkey T>
<SendLabel Bain2S, Bain3S, Bain4S, Bain5S>
<Text /assist BainName1-Ywain1>

// This works just like if you had an assist-macro on your quickbar, except this is a nice way of doing it, if you want to be able to quickly change the toon you want to assist.
// That way you could copy the script to all 5 bains, edit the names in the <Text>-command, and you’d be able to make all of the bains assist the toon you’re controlling, nomatter
// which one you’re actually playing!
