[RESOLVED] Java

[zoller]

Hi all, I am trying to automate a process in a first person shooter game, basically:

While holding space bar down,
when I move the mouse right, I would like to have key1 held down,
when I move the mouse left, I would like to have key2 held down.

With my very little knowledge of java and great knowledge of google, I have come up with this partial solution:

I'm just skipping the "while the spacebar is held down" for now.

Now, this program works perfectly in windows. However when I launch this DirectX game, the FPS game seems to report that the mouse is always in the dead centre of the screen, when I move the mouse left, the program only realises this for very very short periods (like 5ms) before the game seems to reset the mouse position back to centre.

I am wondering if there is some other way that I could use java to work out if the mouse is "attempting to" move left or right while in the game so that I get more consistent results ingame.

Here is what I have managed to come up with so far:

import java.awt.MouseInfo;
import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;

 public class bhop {
	public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception{
		while(true){
		
			// Get mouse position, wait 25 ticks, get it again
			int xPos1 = MouseInfo.getPointerInfo().getLocation().x;
			Thread.sleep(25);
			int xPos2 = MouseInfo.getPointerInfo().getLocation().x;
			
			Robot RobotOne = new Robot();
			
			// If the 2nd value is higher than the first, mouse is moving left
			// Press & Hold "A"
			if (xPos1 > xPos2) {
				RobotOne.keyPress( KeyEvent.VK_A );
				Thread.sleep(25);
				
			// Else If the 2nd value is higher than the first, mouse is moving right
			// Press & Hold "D"
			} else if (xPos1 < xPos2) {
				System.out.println("right");
				RobotOne.keyPress( KeyEvent.VK_D );
				Thread.sleep(25);
			}
		}	
	}
}

All comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated.
