How do you do a double tap then hold?

[Patriktx]

I have a keyboard command that has us doing a double tap on the left Shift key then hold it to keep the command active.

Its the Star Citizen Afterburner command for those of you using VA for SC.

Trying to get it to double tap then hold for 5 seconds something like that

The key to making a macro work properly is timing, so you may have to fiddle with the hold down times a bit:

Code: [Select]

Press Left Shift key and hold for 0,03 seconds and release
Press Left Shift key and hold for 0,03 seconds and release
Press Left Shift key and hold for 5 seconds and release


I don't know how the afterburner works exactly, but if you have to hold down the shift key as long as you'd like it to fire, you can have one command press the key and hold it indefinitely, with another releasing it:

"Afterburner"

Code: [Select]

Press Left Shift key and hold for 0,03 seconds and release
Press Left Shift key and hold for 0,03 seconds and release
Press down Left Shift key

"Resume cruise"

Code: [Select]

Release Left Shift key
