My case: va did it too slow.. I wanted it to at least as fast as I manually done at least..
Had to spend awhile to tweak it till it works..
For me, that one liner press hold then release tends to fail or randomly executed late/too fast...
So I just manually do four lines instead for each press as I suspect the key release does matter to the game..
Press key A
Pause .01
Release key A
Pause .01
And just copy/paste.. It's long and ugly but it does the job fast..
Btw, I also have to use directx, not the standard one..
I have a docking sequence that I do when im about to enter the letter box.. the usual 4 pips to system and slow down etc..
and what cool is, using condition it will remind me to request for docking permission if I havent done so..
"Warning, you have no landing permission.."
