Ticks and pressing keybindings

[thebest108]

1. Is there a way to run something every tick from the mod class and how?

2. How can I get the client to press buttons as if they were being pressed by the keyboard (specifically A and D)

Hi

 

1. Yes there is- search for tutorials on ITickHandler.

2. Yes there is - lots of options!  For more information see

You can intercept the keybindings as per this sample code

or for a&d using the MovementInput as per this post

or alternatively you can just force the appropriate keyBinding to true before GameSettings.updatePlayerMoveState (GameSettings.keyBindLeft etc - see MovementInputFromOptions)
