Curious why macros/ Windows "Mouse Keys" doesn't work with the game.
I mean, it's a clicker game. So, logic says if you can save the life of your mouse a little, set up a way to auto click. It's not even cheaty since it's a single player game that esentially plays itself. Just wondering why the approach that your game is the only "clicker" game where mouse macros/ the windoes key command (alt+shift+num lock to use your keyboard as a mouse) doesn't work.

It's actually kind of a silly restriction, considering there's no point in stopping the player from making progress at whatever speed they decide. Hopefully this is just a bug.

I mainly use my mouse macro (30 clicks) to
a.) save the life of my mouse/ build in other games
b.) to level a hero multiple times in quick succession

And Mouse Keys
a.) When I don't feel like using my mouse to click because I don't care as much about my numpad 5 key, as I do my left click

This is a great, mindless game/ time killer when waiting for other things, or down time between matches (or just let it run while you watch youtube and check it whenever). Just kind of a stupid design choice to limit the clicking to 1 click per input (or none at all in the case of windows mouse keys)

A developer reply would be cool. I'm not bashing the game at all. It's a clicker game, so who really cares. I'm just curious about the design decision considering it's not like there's a competitive edge against other players that can be gained by making it easier to click, or having alternative ways to 'click'.

Murgee's AutoClicker works just fine.

I'm not really that worried about it, nor am I downloading that auto clicker lol.

Was just curious. Not like I'm really that worried about reaching the end-game of a basically infinite clicker game

I just use Razer Synapse to set up a clicking macro, seems to work fine with the game.

Yeah, my logitech G402 Hyperion Fury mouse works in literally every other program. lol.

And my keyboard is so old I'm afraid to try to macro it again. It has 18 macro keys, and 3 profiles but it's so old and buggy (even with the newst drivers/ firmware that are a few years old) im afraid to set them to anything. I had my computer endlessly holding the 5 key on ACCIDENT (i wanted it to press once). You try opening files on the desktop with a name not starting in 5, or running a program on your computer if you can't type (and no, disconnecting the keyboard didn't work). That was a fun little scare!

Eh, it's a new game, and super buggy (since like half of the abilities are broken anyways and resetting breaks it even more). I can handle a few weeks of patches. The game will play itself in the meantime.

Ouch definitely a bad experience so don't blame you there. Since Razer is working I'm just assuming that some being left out was an accident or oversight. (so I'm hoping)

Let's hope patches sort out these issues over time, at least the auto clicking allies can earn you some coins until then.

Agreed.

I'm kinda dumb so it probably wouldn't fix your issue, but how long are you auto-clicking your mouse button for? An auto-clicker I found releases my mouse button too quickly, so my clicks wouldn't register. :o

I've changed the delay times multiple times. The click doesn't even register using the windows mouse keys command, so, say, tapping 5 on the numpad once doesn't work in the game, but everywhere else it does.

And no atter what delay I use, it doesn't seem to matter with the mouse. I can left click as fast as I want with no input issues, but the macro seems to break the input registering. Of course, it could just me some odd mouse compatability issue. Which is fine.

But yeah, i did change the delays multiple times. I couldn't even get it to click twice on it's own. I could have manually clicked much much faster, if I wanted to. Which, i don't lol.

Weird. I use an AHK script for Clicker Heroes, Tap Tap Infinity and Time Clickers, and it doesn't work with Sakura.

glad im not the only one having issues of one kind or another with methods of auto clicking (or at the very least semi-auto).

i've never fully automated the clicking lol. didn't feel the need to invest so much into it. I have faith patches will fix it. Beta testers (and this game appears to have been tested) only come in so many varieties, with so many kinds of equipment/ software. I'm sure they'll treat their boob lovers to a well patched game. I mean, they're going to add critical click clothing removal and more art. Lol.

Wouldn't be surprised if they added some additional file download elsewhere for people who wanted uncensored content in the future. Not saying I'm personally interested, but I know they did with their other VN's, and this IS an official Sakura game.

But thats off topic. back to macros and faith in patches for this fun, mindless game :D

Not allowing mouse keys to work with this game will very quickly deter people who are unable to use a mouse, or have difficulties with using a mouse.

I personally think this is a very bad move on the part of the game designers, and is something that should really be corrected!

Thanks Pudding, turns out I was having the exact same problem with my G15 (original now rebranded as the G510). I fixed by adding a delay between the 'click down' and the 'click up' by 50 milliseconds, then I made the repeat 50 milliseconds. That is a total of ten clicks a second.... This works with Sakura Clicker. [Logitech Gaming Software v8.91.48]

Clicker Heroes can be overwhelmed if I set to many clicks per second - it starts to get wonky between 30 and 50 clicks per second; so I just set it for 30 clicks per second. This program works for Crush Crush, Time Clickers, Adventure Capitalist.

I hope this helps out someone else :hat1:
