Hi
I'm using "event_perform"

event_perform(ev_keyboard,ev_keypress#)

So now I need it to press digit 2 (not keypad), but how do I do that ?
I have to change the # into something, but I don't know what
Please help ^^
Thanks

For the digit keys use for example ord('5') to get the <5> key.

Now next question.
This code only seems to work for the objects in my game itself...
I kinda need it also to work for other programs. So that windows actually thinks that button is being pressed. Is this possible ? If so, what code should I use ?

The following routines can be used to manipulate the keyboard state:


keyboard_get_numlock() Returns whether the numlock is set.
keyboard_set_numlock(on) Sets (true) or unsets (false) the numlock.
keyboard_key_press(key) Simulates a press of the key with the indicated keycode.
keyboard_key_release(key) Simulates a release of the key with the indicated keycode.

It would probably be best to always simulate in a press, hold, release manner, just as the keyboard always has to do to get to release. If that makes sense.
