Random record macro
by P_
Forge players on 1.8.9 can capture keyboard presses and mouse clicks during play, then have the captured input run back later at matching intervals, which is what this macro tool does.
What it does
Recordings capture keyboard inputs, mouse movement and clicks, and can be started, stopped, saved and replayed with chat commands that begin with rr. Each capture is written to disk as a JSON file, so a player who copies those files can restore them on another computer or keep them as a spare. A recording can be looped, and several recordings can be played in sequence, with a random option that picks which recording plays next.
Commands cover the whole cycle: rr record starts a recording, rr stop ends it or stops playback, rr save keeps the current recording, rr play runs one, and rr list, rr delete and rr clear manage what is stored. rr status reports whether the recorder or playback is active. Recordings can also be combined, so a sequence such as farm1, farm2 and farm3 can be set up under one rr multiple command.
The server rules of the server being played on decide whether macros are allowed, and the mod does not change that. The mod is published for Forge only, for 1.8.9, and it runs on the client alone. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Keyboard and mouse recording
Keyboard inputs, mouse movement and clicks are captured during play and kept as a recording.
Timed replay
A saved recording replays its actions later at the same timing as the original session.
Looping and sequences
Recordings can repeat in a loop, or several recordings can be played one after another.
Local JSON storage
Recordings are saved as JSON files, so they stay on disk and can be copied between installations.
