Force UI key

[ZeroNote]

• Game - Force SomePlayer to press the key SomeKey

This action seems to work fine for human players, but for computer players, it does not work. Anybody know why?

I imagine it's because Computer players don't use hotkeys. They don't need input for their actions, they skip that layer and just go straight to the function.

What are you trying to do exactly?

Nothing really, just wanna know why. Anyways thank you

It does not work because the choosen player is used for GetLocalPlayer() comparison. No LocalPlayer is equal to a Warcraft Bot

function ForceUIKeyBJ takes player whichPlayer, string key returns nothing
    if (GetLocalPlayer() == whichPlayer) then
        // Use only local code (no net traffic) within this block to avoid desyncs.
        call ForceUIKey(key)
    endif
endfunction
