Cheat Engine

So I've been making a few new Lua based tools lately, and I've started creating hotkey combinations for them. I've ran into an issue when trying to include the numpad keys into the equation, and have not found a list of working keys for Cheat Engine (I checked the wiki, but may have missed it). I did google Lua keys and keycodes, but none of these seem to work for the numpad keys. I've tried the following examples to no avail:

Menu shortcuts are different from cheat engine hotkeys as they only support ascii characters and 3 special keys (Ctrl, alt, shift)

Keypad 0 is dependant on the state of capsclock. It's either 0 or insert

You could use ce's hotkey feature for this and use key VK_NUMPAD0 , which will trigger the onclick function of the menu item. Downside is that they work when cheat engine isn't in the foreground

I appreciate the quick response. I'll see if I can find some suitable ascii based characters for the actions then. Thanks.
