Line 1: Line 1:
Well I used to mess around with autohotkey, but when I wanted to do more complicated scripts it was painfully under equipped.  Granted, it's not as user friendly, but anyone with some minor coding background can pick it up really quickly.
 
  
Instead of making a hotkey for wall building, or even a series of wall builds, I can make it read from a template file to build floor plans (walls, floors, doors, etc.) starting from a particular spot.  (Saying there is no blocked areas, etc.)  I don't think autohotkey can do more generative things, it needs to be preprogrammed.
 
 
Course, making generative things is a PITA, and I don't know how to tell the macro how to figure out what materials to use other than the default top position.
 
 
Basically, every time I want a new macro I need to program it in autohotkey, in autoit3 I can spend more time making one macro, but I can use it for tons of things.
