I have set up hot keys for search for increased and decreased values, but when I press the key its will double search (killing the results at times) unless I press and release the key as fast as I can?

Am I doing something wrong? This seems bugged.

I cant find anyone else mentioning this issue, and it seems like its a pretty large issue with hot key usage if it is.

Please help,

When you set the hot keys, did you notice either of the "Keypoll intervals" or "Delay between reactivating hotkeys" settings?

I did after the post. Thanks I feel silly now..

Is there a way to request that each hotkey has its own delay timer? I think that some searches you want it to spam the key, and other you do not.

For example - unchanged value is usually ok to SPAM, but changed is not.

Not that I know of, it seems like for hotkeys it would just check the one setting.

You could setup a key reader with a thread (with "sleep(0)") or a timer, that uses the memScan class (with "getCurrentMemscan()") to preform a nextScan with unchanged value. But I've only played with the memScan class a little, I've never really used it. But just check the "celua.txt" file in the CE executable's directory.

200 to 500 ms shouldn't trigger double scans, but should still be fast enough to spam (the scan also takes some time anyhow)

Yeah, I have mine set at 100 and 300. And that has always worked for me.
