Stronghold Hotkeys

Supported Stronghold versions are Stronghold, Stronghold Crusader, Stronghold Crusader Extreme

How to use

To use the program, download and install AutoHotkey v1.1 and just double click the Stronghold.ahk file.

If you want to use a pre built version, you can download it from here.

This adds a Stronghold icon in your system tray. To close the program go to this icon -> right click -> "Exit"

In the game you can now press and hold down the middle mouse button and it automatically clicks continously where your mouse is. Also a map navigation with the w, a, s, d keys can be used to navigate the map, as well as some shortcuts to perform actions (like opening the market).

Change settings

To change any settings, go to the icon -> right click -> "Configure Settings" and change the settings in the gui

Why?

In Stronghold and Crusader it can get very anoying to make dozens of clicks for just selling stuff or recruiting troups.

Also having to press ctrl + m instead of just m to open the market is inconvenient.

Autoclicker

This program adds an auto clicker. Just press and hold the middle mouse button (this is the default) to send clicks to the game.

Map navigation (By default only enabled in Stronghold)

In Stronghold it is possible to navigate the map with the arrow keys, the Unofficial Crusader Patcher adds the option to navigate with the w, a, s, d keys to Crusader. (This is the prefered method for Crusader)

This program now adds the same ability to navigate the map in the game.

Warning
This makes the a, s, d, f keys impossible to use in any other way inside of the game (e.g. when saving the game). To mitigate this issue see toggle key.

Replacing keys

To open the market, you can press ctrl + m, to open the barracs you can press ctrl + b, this is inconvenient to use, so this program adds the ability to define a single key to open the market (default setting is m) or may other actions.

Warning
This makes the assigned keys impossible to use in any other way inside of the game (e.g. when saving the game). To mitigate this issue see toggle key.

Toggle key

A Hotkey can be set to fast enable and disable the Map Navigation as well as the Replacing keys options during the game.
This option is set to the CapsLock key by default.

Stronghold minimal Autoclicker

You only need a minimal autoclicker and nothing else?

Just use the file Minimal_Autoclicker.ahk and run it, it will enable a simple autoclicker as long as you press and hold the middle mouse button.

If you want to use a pre built version, you can download it from here.
