Looks good, works good - great work!
Thanks!
I assume needing to press enter after each key press and needing to input a ton of menu commands to have time to see what's in them isn't normal
being able to queue movement commands is interesting though.
Tried it on win 7.
thanks for trying it out and for the post. That isn’t normal at all. Each key press should be a command without pressing enter. I never tried it on win7 but I suspect there may be bugs that affect all platforms.
