Thanks for much for this! I spent like 6 hours today struggling to submit keystrokes to elden ring. The KeyDown followed by KeyUp did the job.

I work in industrial automation. We have equipment that we purchased, but it doesn't have any IO. The manufacturer doesn't provide an API or dll to get at the data, so we have to make something.
This video gives me a good starting point . Thanks!!

Still updating my code all inspired by this channel. I realized he didn't dig deep but it was a start. Fun for p2w servers.
I can do much more that this video shows but I will not share too much.

I'd use background workers or tasks running async instead of in the main thread. Thus not allowing cancellation or inputs. But I guess it's not really needed in this case 😅
