Is there no auto walk key?

[rovaira2]

Is there no auto walk key? A few other games I play don't have one either, so may just use the script I ran before to make one.

Does having an auto walk key count as a cheat though? Thanks.

Not in game.

There is a mod for it.

Or mouse that supports macros.

Or other things like autoit

Or fork to wedge down key.

Thanks. I'll try the mod. I also don't have the anti cheat thing installed yet; I assume it's safe to use their anti-cheat program if it's part of ARK. Also hoping I can still use the auto walk mod in multi-player. I've only tried single player thus far.

all you need is a tiny script to hold down Shift and W, https://autohotkey.com/ is the best place I know, has a great support group/forum to help newcomers, and it's completely safe and free ... I myself use Xpadder as I play with Controller and mouse.
And no, Making an auto walk key is not cheating I use it all the time it just saves ware and tear on your fingers and helps against RSI.

British Geezer: The left Shift key is momentary, the right one latches and/or toggles run mode on and off. No need to script the shift key.

I used autohotkey before, but that was an additional program I had to start up.
Then I used a smal scissors that I can wedge sort of onto my "W" key to autorun.
This way I can leave my quetzal flying across the map and I can have a great coffee or something else..
Auto-walk is so awesome!!!

You can set autohotkey to start with windows, the program is so small you won't see any performance drop.... but yeah old school ways work just as well, I have, in the past, played many a game with matchsticks jammed into the keyboard for "auto" functions :P
