    copy and paste cheats


    Ok, Ok, I cheat.......now and again! I want extra men/resources, etc so I tap enter, enter the cheat code and press ctrl C to copy and then press enter ctrl and V and keep hitting enter and repeat. Is there a way to get multiples of the require code without keying endlessly?

    CTRL + C and CTRL+V are normal windows keyboard shortcuts (no cheat code required)

    Thanks Kyhi, yes I understand that. What I'm trying to do is....Say I want to add 50 extra men, instead of pressing enter ctrl V enter 50 times, is there a way to get multiples with less keying?

    Look up to see if the game you play has a "trainer" usually they have features to them that allow easier cheat code entries. All though be careful with these sorts of application make sure they come from a source that is popular within that game's community.

    To repeat a key combo and return - write a simple script file.
    You could have it prompt you for the number of repeats, then use that number to set the number of loop iterations in which it sends the keystrokes to that window or process.

    E.g. using Autohotkey (free) - good help file with examples. Easy to experiment with - just create a text file, minimum 1 line, extension .ahk
    Double click that with Autohotkey installed and it will run.

    Example from Help file:

    Thanks for the input Dalchina but that's a bit above the pay grade for an old brown dog like me

    Malneb, got a "trainer" from a trusted site and does enough of what I want, so good to go

    You could cut and paste text so you have two copies, then recut and paste the two copies, so you have 4 - repeat cutting 4 copies to get 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 etc. Only 7 cut and pastes to get 128 copies, 10 to get over 1000 copies.
