Simulate/force player arrowkey press

Does anyone know a way to force or simulate a player to press an arrowkey?

The reason i'm asking this is because i am using this arrowkeymovement system and when i change the "walk" animation on my unit to its "defend walk" animation, the animation isn't reset and the unit plays his "defend stand" animation while walking, until i release the up-arrowkey and press it down again..

So does anyone know of a way to either force/simulate a arrowkey press/release or a way to fix the system so it resets its animation(so you don't have to release and press the up-arrowkey to reset the animation)?

And by the way, i don't know much jass..

Thanks in advance

Edit: I thought of another way to make this work, by forcing the player to stand still to be able to defend/undefend, but i dont know how i would check if the unit is moving or not with the movement system i am using, any ideas?

Have you tried

Trigger:
  • Game - Force Player 1 (Red) to press the key Up Arrow

Wait a min...

The reason i'm asking this is because i am using this arrowkeymovement system and when i change the "walk" animation on my unit to its "defend walk" animation, the animation isn't reset and the unit plays his "defend stand" animation while walking, until i release the up-arrowkey and press it down again..

When you change the "walk" animation to "defend walk" the animation is NOT reset. Seems kinda obvious doesn't it? You need to change it back to the "walk" animation in your trigger.

Fx. Player - releases a key = Up Arrow.

Or am I reading it wrong?

@Solu9 what it means is that when i use defend, the new animation(defend walk) isn't playing properly, the new animation is played like its stand version(defend stand) while i'm still moving forward. I could make a demo map to show you if you need more info about the problem.

Also note that i'm okay with a solution where the player have to stand completely still before activating/deactivating defend.

Here's the demo, you need Newgen.

    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
