Suggestion: change out the w in the alt-w shortcut

[Heckner]

It also uses player skills, so that could be a pain

Hadn't considered that because i'd not tested it in hideout, I can map it to anything and will fix this tonight. In the future we should have support for setting your own hotkeys as well.

[Jlance999]

After testing in game, I'm not having my skills used when using the hotkey with the program running, this has been an issue for you? The only default hotkey it conflicts with in game is W and it doesn't register when alt+W are pressed if on a valid object for lookup.

I have had the same issue, but can't remember if I was using my dev exe or not.

Okay, I've done some more testing. This indeed is a problem even with the latest dev version. With that noted, the issue only appears if HOLD alt for a second then press w. If you press both buttons at the same time, it reacts as expected. Since w is Flame Dash in game for me, my cursor also had to be within the correct range for flame dash.

Something like this should work, maybe? But based on this issue: boppreh/keyboard#22 it looks like its supported only on Windows atm, and also not always
