Whenever I click Disable Smart, "You haven't received any messages to which you can reply." will pop up in the RuneScape text box. Does anyone know why this happens?

A similar thing happens if your in the world select lobby and click disable SMART, it will log you in. I think that when you click disable it sends a tab key press to the client, though I really don't understand why

I thought it was weird because whenever that message appears there is going to be a certain time where you are going to do something totally different from the script, which can give away your cover to jagex. Also, assuming they already don't know this, can this thread be deleted?

Happens to me as well, which is why I don't use smart that often anymore, lots of detectable things (like this for example) and i've also seem similar problems on smart that I have also seen 2 years ago, so looks like nothing has been fixed, and a few days ago I reported a smart disable/enable error and I only got told of solutions of how I could fix it, but nothing was done as to fixing the actual client

Imo it's not detectable that a player accidentally hits the tab key, but when the mouse moves at the same time, then perhaps….

Yeah everytime you disable/enable smart it presses the tab key that is why you get the message in the RS text box saying, "there is no-one to talk to" or something :P

-Boom

Smart never sends conflicting events, the tab thing due to SMART emulating an alt+tab window switch when it needs to get focus. Was the safest and most efficient way at the time.

Doesn't seem to be the safest way now.

It just so happens that the client does something when you press the tab key now, its no more safe or unsafe than it ever was. It stands that this is the best way to maintain the proper focus state of the window, which is vastly more important than whether or not you can type or it sending a tab key every now and again.

People don't seem to understand the mechanics of SMART, regardless of it being open source, which is surprising to me. Sure, it has small problems with typing, but the quality of the things it does well (which, conveniently, are the things it was designed to do) far surpass any negatives that are difficult to avoid. As free people, you're welcome to build a better one, lol.

And we would find this source where? I've been dying to see the source to smart for years to read it and understand how it works.

I was just gunna report this… And the fact that I have to press disable 3 times! to get to type.. or rotate screen.. is ridiculous.
