Main use for this for me is Excel, however, my trigger key is sent to Excel, rather than the action that I'm supposed to be sending, example, I hit "4" and it is supposed to send an "ALT+5", however, only the 4 gets entered in excel. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

And your macro works in other programs? Like notepad?

Same thing with the age of empires 2. Only original keystrokes not from luamacros

Same here. I am thinking of running a vm and dedicating the numpad to it. I also need some coding to pass commands from vm to host. Don't judge it. I am just experimenting. :D :D :D :D :D
